Hi Amir

1. Try and check if the file you downloaded has the md5 checksum

listed here -- http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/freesurfer/md5sum.txt

For the Suse Itanium one, the string of characters you are looking for is "e064d9a8b08dc10ecc57d1b60f0094f"

To find out the md5, use the command "md5".. like

md5 freesurfer-Linux-suse-ia64-stable-pub-v4.5.0.tar.gz <enter>

2. Searching a few internet forums, people have suggested the

following might work. So try it out too

gzip -d file.tar.gz

and then do

tar -xf file.tar

Hi there,

I am getting the following error when unzipping the SuSE Itanium release:

"tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers"

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Regards, Amir
