Hello!
I have a 80G tar archive which I have nowhere to extract to. Could I mount it as a filesystem? Read-only would suffice.
Andrew,
Short of that solution, why not tar -t to get a list of files in the archive, then you can tar -x the files you actually want.
You ought to be able to: tar -t foo.tar > list.txt edit list.txt cat list.txt | xargs tar -x foo.tar
