Hi,

I want to install ns2.31 in fedora10, so i downloaded the ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz folder.
My problem is when i try to unzip this folder whith this command:

tar -zxvf ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz

i encounter this error:

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: child returned status 1
tar:error exit delayed from previous errors

who have idea about this please?
thank you

Looks like you got a corrupt `ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz'.
Please delete. And download a new one :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/nsna...ar.gz/download

Since year 2004, tar-1.15.1, the "tar" command is : $ tar xvf ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz

You realize Fedora 10 is End of Life (No more updates) since 2009-12-18?

marwa88 · 11-15-2015, 07:16 PM

yes, but i need to install the cognitive radio patch (CRCN), and it was tested on fedora10, that's why i installed fedora10

Re #5.

The recommended OS for CRCN used to be CentOS 6.x (Based on Fedora 12,13).

thank you

Re #7.

Just stick to Fedora 10. No reason to use another unsupported = Fedora 12.

CentOS 6.x is the "Enterprise version" of Fedora 12 - 13 :
No difference in the install and the user experience.
But no guaranty that a recent update has made it unusable for CRCN.
See post #6 ".. used to be ..".

no !!!

Fedora 12 is ALSO unsupported

currently only Fedora 22 and 23 are supported

-- see the problem

there have not been any security updates to fedora 10 for 6 years
so ALL AND EVERY!!! now fixed security issue for the past 6 years will NEVER!!!! be fixed in 10

ALL support for fedora 10 ended in December of 2009

you would NOT !!! run Microsoft XP that is missing 6 YEARS of updates and patches
nor run a install of Win7 that you NEVER UPDATED in the 6 years it has been around

-- so please DO NOT run a linux OS that is missing 6 years of updates

CentOS 6.x is still supported and will still be supported untill 2020

Bu me i dont need new updates, i will use it only to work with CRCN patch and even in this forum many of them use fedora 12,
so they will get wrong result? or what?

It's all 'yours'. You break it you get to keep all the parts.

Good luck.

Re #13 , @un1x

This thread is about CRCN.

CentOS 7 is not relevant for CRCN.
