Hi, I have a question which is probably the most basic thing EVER asked on this forum... How does one "unpack" something to the root folder?

I am trying to follow the receipe to upgrade a site and am stopped at the second hurdle "Unpacking the new release: Unpack the new eZ publish release in the root of your eZ publish installation."

How is this done?

I'm assuming that you're on a Linux server...

Thanks for the quick reply. The heading says installation. Does this apply to upgrades as well?

So if I understand it correctly, I just go into PHPMyAdmin and enter

$ tar xvfz ezpublish-3.4.2.tar.gz -C public_html

and then its unpacked to my directory?

For most/all .tar.gz files, Yes.
But I hope you've done a backup first.
