That's why I never set up a linux system without mc. It's just so much |
| 17 |
easier when you can |
| 18 |
look inside an archive and manipulate files just as if it were part of |
| 19 |
the file system. :) |

Anyway, the archive has a directory inside it (linux-2.6.29). That's |
| 22 |
where all the files are. |
| 23 |
So it would be /linux-2.6.29/Makefile. |

Be lucky, |
