|    cpio help needed    |
|    07 Jan 20 19:13:09    |
      From: philo@privacy.net              I am still fooling with the SCO Unix server I had mentioned the other day.              I was given specific instructions how to create and retrieve a gzip       archive on a separate partition using cpio              Now I am working on a bare minimum installation that does not have gzip.                     Since I an only transferring a small amount of data, I don't need it. I       do need help with exact context                     I would like to take one folder and use cpio to let's say) copy it to       /dev/hd0                     I would then put the drive with the archive on it into second machine       and un-archive the files back to a folder              Could anyone give me an exact example?              Thanks              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
