Subject: Getting tar to work!
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2001 16:13:49 GMT
Hi all,
I'm familiar with Solaris, and using its tar command.
I'd like to do the same thing in Linux that I did
in Solaris.
What I want to do is:
- create a file of all the files that I want to tar up
- run the tar command with this flag to tar up
all the files.
In Solaris it is:
tar -cvf Disk1.tar -I Disk1.txt
- create the file, verbose
- I means to include everything in this file
However, in Linux, when I run this command, the
feedback is:
Disk1.txt
And, inspecting the file:
tar -tvf Disk1.tar
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: 499 garbage bytes ignored at end of archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
I have been struggling with this for over 1/2
hour now. I can find nothing in the man page
or tar --help that would indicate that this is
possible. Is it?
The include list indicates everything under the
subdirectory: Disk1. Is there another
way to do this?
Thanks a lot

I hope Justin replies, but a hint if he doesn't: most code editors can
handle search-and-replace quite easily, so what I suspect I will do (I'm
a newbie, too <blush>) is to use that function to replace all `-02'
instances with `-03' although I will probably inspect each instance to be
sure it is pertinent. NB, I will put some time away to do it, as I
remember compiling qt-2 took hours!

Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2001 10:44:01 -0600
Ok, I really hate to ask another LILO error question on Usenet, because
it's such a FAQ, but I have never seen this one before, and I don't see
references to it in the docs.
I have a diamond fireport 40 host adapter, and a 9 gig IBM hard drive.
I recently put RH 7.0 on this disk.
With the linear option passed to LILO, I get this at boot:
L
L
L
L
and nothing else. ?! Anybody seen this before?
I noticed that the lilo shipped with RH7 has been tweaked a bit -
perhaps that's the problem?
Other details - the / partition (which contains /boot) is from cylinder
1 to cylinder 151 on a primary partition:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 151 154608 83 Linux
Also, the host adapter bios thinks the drive has 1024 cylinders, which I
assume is a limitation of the host adapter. It's now an unsupported
product, so I'm probably out of luck if that's the problem.
Thanks,

I assume that you mean you need to install an RPM? First, you need root
access.
Then, to upgrade and/or install an RPM, you just type "rpm -Uvh
<rpmname>.rpm" This will install a new RPM, or upgrade it if an older
version exists.
If it complains about dependencies or other things, you will need to
install other RPMs to satisfy those dependencies.

The -T option to gnu tar does the same as the -I option to Solaris tar.

You could just do 'tar cvf Disk1.tar Disk1' or '(cd Disk1 ; tar cvf Disk1.tar

To install a package run.
rpm -ivh filename
To upgrade a package.
rpm -Uvh filename
or rpm -Fvh filename
To see if a package is already installed like
bash-1.14.7-23.6x.i386.rpm
rpm -q bash # gives name & version of installed package

I'm thinking about buying a DVD decoder card. my dvd drive came with
my system, but had win98 specific decorder software. I'm wondering if
a hardware decoder will help play dvds with linux. The dvd howto seems
to only addresses software decoding. Are there advantages to getting a
decoder card? does linux utilize a decoder card when playing dvds? I
would like to here from both sides:
-Has anyone got dvd's playing w/OUT decoder hardware?
-what distro?
-what apps?
-what's the performance like?
-Has anyone got dvd's playing WITH decoder hardware?
-do you actually use the decoder hardware?
-what distro?
-what apps?
-what's the performance like?

In the DOS/Windows world, the act of compression is usually mated with
the idea of assembling an archive (collection of files). A .zip file
is an archive of compressed files. Under UNIX, we usually separate
the assembling of an archive (for example using tar or cpio) from the
act of compressing (which is what gzip and bzip2 do). So, a
compressed archive in the UNIX world is usually .tar.gz (first the
archive is assembled (into a single bigger file), then the archive is
compressed. This is the opposite order of the DOS world.)
What .zip (as in PkZip and WinZip), gzip and bzip2 share, is some of
the mathematics of how the compression is done. The implementation of
that mathematics is different.
So, to make a long story short, gunzip only works on files which end
in .gz. You can fool gunzip, by having it read its input from stdin,
but if it doesn't understand the format of the file (for example, the
file is a .zip compressed archive) you will still get some kind of
error. There is a program called unzip, which understands most DOS
zip compressed archives.

I tried looking for an include option in the man pages, but didn't see
one, however try the following:
say include_file is the name of the file with all the files u want to tar,
then u can do
tar -cvf tar_file.tar `cat include_file`
Note the `` (backquotes). If u are using bash shell, then it should work
no problem.

Not in Linux it doesn't, -I does something far more "interesting".
A cursory glance at the man place suggests -T is the option you're looking
for. You don't need a "-" before the cvf either. So:
tar cvf Disk1.tar -T Disk1.txt
... should do you.

Why are you creating the file-list in the first place? If it's just a
directory you want to tar up,
tar cvf file.tar directory
will do the trick.
Or how about a creative solution?
find directory -type f | cpio -H tar -ov > file.tar
where at least you can generate the list of files on the fly.

Please do correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't compiling and installing
from the tar balls break rpm dependencies? Would it be better to build
from the src rpms? I have been thinking about recompiling KDE 2.0 from
src but I'm afraid of breaking my rpm dependencies.
As far as your comment about LM 7.2, I have to disagree. As a
recovering RH 7.0 user (with the beta gcc) I have found Mandrake 7.2 to
be quite nice and fairly stable. I am really impressed with the
progress they have made. It does do some screwy things from time to
time but over all i am pleased.

Jan,
Try http://rpmfind.net/ and search for "nwclient". There are a couple RPM's
that should work for you. FYI, if you search on "mars" you'll find a NetWare
File/Print server for Linux too.
Good Luck,
KW
