And on that note about RedHat courses, from memory, the person to contact at
RedHat is: Jodie Kane on 02 9293 2916 or see their web-site at:
http://www.redhat.com.au/training/rhce/
That said, if your machine runs Debian (or any other distribution of linux
for that matter) I don't know how helpful you will find their courses.

I doubt the data is stored in a "customised" compressed format. The
chances are the data is stored in "tarball" files. If the files end in
".tar.gz", or possibly ".tar.Z", this is the case. The tool used to
manipulate these files are "tar" and "gzip".

The tutorial would depend on how the files are compressed. If you can
supply some sample filenames, and suggest what you want to do with them,
perhaps the list can help further.

Redhat run courses on basic linux skills every now and then in Canberra.
They insist on spamming this list with the details. I suppose that might
be considered a good thing, otherwise I wouldn't be able to suggest those
courses to you :)
