You are using unsusual wording.... Sorry for my english being hard to understand. I was told that an error on a tar achive can make it impossible to restore a file from a non corrupted part of the archive. Is it true ? star seems to be perfect. I'll use it. Is it safe to try to use -tsize without -multivol ? Does it increase the chances to restore an archive if one dvd is lost ? Anyway I must solve the burned dvd mounting first :/ -- Jean-Christophe Michel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
