Andrew thanks for that, you're absolutely correct, I found that the tmp
dir it was trying to write to only had a 5 meg quota on that drive. My
shell provider told me how to change my tmp dir to my home drive and it
works a treat now.

Thanks

hmm. i'd double-check the amount of space in the partition your /tmp
directory is in. chances are, there's plenty of space, but you're close
to hitting the (default) 5% reserved space for root or something
perhaps? 
if you're extracting this as root, that's probably not the problem, but
check anyway. you can change the limit (which is insane for drives
larger than 10 gigs anyway) with tune2fs (this is assuming an ext2
drive. if you're using reiserfs or xfs or something, i don't think they
do reserved limits)

also, the md5sum for the file should be 5f079a9693e6a61a7b25795e3ccce7b1
so consider double-checking that too.
