View 2 RepliesI haven't been to this site in quite a while, since it changed from LNO in fact. Good to see this place is still around, albeit under a newer name.
I'll get on with the problem. I've got a Netgear SC101T that I was using to store my files on. Some of you may know it uses the DataPlow SAN file system. It worked fine until I installed a firmware update which, for some reason, broke the mirror array. I've hated this POS ever since and want to pull the data from the drives and toss the box. The problem is, linux doesn't have support for this particular file system scheme.
What I'm wondering is, how does 'dd' work, in regards to keeping the file system. Does it simply copy files and disregards the structure, or does it make an exact copy, DataPlow FS and all? Anyone else ran into this conundrum?
Is there any way to untar and only extract those files that are above a certain date including directory structure??
I restored a backup on a play server but it was a few days old. However I have a tar archive of the entire structure that is more up to date and healthy so now I want to extract all files (including directory structure) based on a date filter on the files if possible?
I have tar files where I archive about 250 files, each about 80 Mb, without compression. In a few cases tar is only returning some of the files. For example, when doing an extract of the file using:
tar -xvf 356.tar
I got only 103 files, when it should return 255 files, but tar does not give me an error. Furthermore, the tar archive is 15.8 Gb while the extracted folder is just 6.4 Gb. The tar files were created using:
tar -cvf 356.tar 356
where 356 is the name of the folder. All the steps where done in the same machines, under Ubuntu 6 and newer. Any ideas if there is a way to recover the files that are not being extracted?
When I try to extract different archives, files with the extension *.html never unpacked. Files with other extensions of the same archives successfully decompressed. Why is this happening?
I have Ubuntu 9.10 and Unrar 0.0.1.
I made a bzip2 file by
bzip2 -c /home/os/picture1 > /home/os/Desktop/pic.image
bzip2 -c /home/os/picture2 >> /home/os/Desktop/pic.image
But now extracting pic.image by bzip2 -d /home/os/Desktop/pic.image returns
bzip2: Can't guess original name for pic.image -- using pic.image.out
And then it just creates one file pic.image.out.
How do I access picture1 and picture2 from pic.image?
Does anyone know how to extract the files and contents out of a .pkg, A sony package file to be precise.

I am running Ubuntu 11.04 and just tried to install VLC. I download the .zip file and once it loaded, I tried to extract it. The following error came up:
tar (child): /tmp/vlc-1.1.4.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
What is the correct method to unzip and install this (or any other .zip file for that matter?)
I have a file : cpq_cciss-2.6.20-34.rhel4.i686.dd which is designed to build a floppy disk; these floppy is used to hold disk driver which is not on RedHat CD-Rom. But this .dd is not complete: some files, like /drivers/pci.ids are missing.My idea is to extract all files from .dd file, put missing files and then re-create a new dd file. But, how can extract all files from initial .dd file, and then recreate a new one?

Theyre probably registered in sequence just like .rar files. What program can I yum install or where should I look to extract these to what will probably be an ISO.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have many files in a folder from which I need to extract some contents, these are basically text files wich have individual lines with (i.e)
name: john
address: whatever
phone: 123456
Some caveats
1. Sometimes a line might be missing.
name: johnn
phone: 123456
2. Lines are not in the same line-numbers across the files I did try some things with awk based on google searches but I couldn't extract the data of each file into a single line (this is the ultimate goal):
john,whatever,123456
I don't have knowledge other than having put some bash scripts together for backup jobs, so I am open to install anything that could to pull this off.
I have a .tar archive of music that I would like to extract specific files / folders from. I've been looking at man tar but I don't seem to be able to find any information related to my quest, although someone will likely point out that it's right there in front of my nose
Anyhow, the file is called music_archive.tar and I would like to extract the folder /music/P/Pink Floyd/The Wall/. Anyone know how to do this
OK, So I'm trying to make a SFX file that will extract it's files your home folder, But I can't seem to figure out how.
First you have to make an archive,
Code:
rar a Zipper.zip txt.txt
Then you have to make the sfx.
Code:
rar s Zipper.zip
But they still get extracted wherever the sfx volume is.
im trying to reconstruct / extract a file that was too large to fit onto a floppy, used 7zip to create and split the file into multiple parts in tar.bzip format. this was done in windows. Then moved all the parts of the file to tiny linux on a really old laptop. no cd drive, no usb or network. so have to rely on floppy drive. i do know that reconstruction while extracting using commands is possible. but not working.tried tar -xMf file.tar.001 but nothing.

View 1 Replies View Relatedmy problem is that I can't extract some files because of a problem with cyrillic fonts (at least, this is what I suspect). The point is that I download some kind of files, which are fully functional to extract and open in windows but in Ubuntu trying the same thing, ends with an error. Files are downloaded from a russian web, so I think the fonts are cyrillic, which is the root of the problem. In windows they are shown as some kind of rare ASCII string but it's OK to open them.
The problem when trying in Ubuntu is that the file is shown as a large string with question marks '?' replacing all non-latin characters and it may cause problem, as it is the wildcard shell character in Linux. Renaming the file seems as an impossible task too. I have to process many of these files. Does Anyone know how can I avoid windows to do this? I tried to install many packages for cyrillic/russian support through synaptic nut it didn't seem to work.
I have installed debian on my dell latitude d630 laptop and am currently making a derivative for others to use. however I can't get the wireless to work. I downloaded it from the broadcom site but it comes as a gzip file instead of a deb file. if I extract the gzip file I don't get any installable (deb) files. I need the wireless to work because now a bridged network from my windows laptop isn't working.

I know a .bin file is an executable file type in linux. We have an error after installing it and it referes to a file name and a line number within the file. I'm trying to find out if the file is part of the .bin file but I need a way to see what's inside of it or extract it.
