Hi folks,
I downloaded the ipk for the NFDB from
http://www.warmi.net/zaurus/nfdb.shtml (http://www.warmi.net/zaurus/nfdb.shtml)
for use on my 5000d running the Cacko rom. I DID run into the trouble mentioned on the site...
the "foods.db" file is where it belongs, but is still packed. The author said to rename that file to .tar.gz and then ungzip. I'm afraid I don't know how to go about this.
I've renamed the file to foods.db.tar.gz and run command
gunzip /home/QtPalmtop/pics/nfdb/FOODS.db.tar.gz
from advancedFM (with root privileges), and get errors.
I've renamed it foods.tar.gz and tried it and still get errors. (unintelligible message)
I unzipped it from a desktop and coppied the file to CF, but failed to copy from CF to my (1 gb) SD card where it's installed.
I ran gunzip on FOODS.tar.gz from "run command with output" and got "...FOODS.tar permission denied". Same with FOODS.db.tar.gz.
Can anyone help me?

rename it to foods.db.gz, then gunzip the file. ignore the part about the tar.
It would be nice if someone could update the database, which is on R17 now.

Thanks Ken,
I still get "permission denied" though. I checked the file permissions and made sure ALL permissions were checked, but I still get denied.
