Hello all,

I downloaded a file with an extension of .cpio.gz.  So what I did was to
extract first the gunzip by:

$ gunzip -d filename.cpio.gz

Now, the result was already "filename.cpio" file.  As far as I
understand the CPIO command, the right command to extract .cpio files
should be:

# cpio -idmv filename.cpio

My problem is, I don't know if it's running/working correctly because it
seems that it's hanging(?).  I execute that command at around 9:01AM
today and until now it's already 9:45AM and it's still hanging(?).

I also checked my top command for that process and I got this result:

 PID USER     PRI  NI  SIZE  RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM   TIME COMMAND
 5682 root       9   0   336  336   276 S     0.0  0.2   0:00 cpio

BTW, the filesize of this file is 553239173.

Any advice?

Thanks.
