You are using the libc5 command "fdformat", but your system doesn't
support libc5. You have some change unpacking "mu -u".
But it is better if you install bzip2 and fdformat in your main
system.

Unfortunately, recent Linux distros comes without "fdformat",
strangely deprecated in favor of "superformat".

I will try to do more smart the "mu" script, with some useful
autodetection
