Hello Paul, while I'm writing a tar PR I tried to reproduce your problem.
Unsuccessfully. It works just fine.
I guess your tar isn't finishing without errors, since permission setting
is done after extraction, I can see your problem if I interrupt this
command. It the leaves the tree with wrong permissions you described.
Maybe your destination is full?
You have to see where the error occurs, in general it works just fine.

prompt. Same deal. I had tried manually chmoding the /mnt dir. To 777,
but that didn't help either.
In the end I gave up, and did a fresh install straight onto the CF drive
from the CD. I did try a 6.0 beta3 install, but it kept crashing early
in the install process, so 5.4 it is (for the time being).
Cheers,
Paul

Subject: Directory permissions issue taring directories onto
a Compact Flashcard
Hi,
I have done a minimal FreeBSD 5.4 install onto single
partition ad0s1a I then mounted my 512MB Compact Flash ide
drive on ad2s1.
When I run this command su'ed as root:
tar --one-file-system cf - -C / . | tar xpvf - -C /mnt
I find that all the directories end up with permissions of:
drwx--
Even running: dump 0af - / | restore xf - gives the same result.
If I manually create a directory on the CF /mnt I get the
correct permissions! Files copied over via tar and dump are
ok. I have used tar to copy HD contents to larger HD,s
before with out a problem.
Umask is set to 22, and this is being done in a tcsh shell.
Any clue on whats going on?
Cheers,
Paul Hamilton.
