Ubuntu :: Compress Tar Files For Backups?

Oct 25, 2010

I just read in my Linux+ resources that it is not a wise idea to compress tar files with gzip if my tape drive supports compression. In addition, the resources mention that using gzip for tar files runs the risk of data lost if an error occurs with the compression.

Does anyone compress tar files for major backups/restore policies?

General :: How To Compress Files Using Zip / 7z / Rar

Jul 31, 2010

I want to package my application for linux, I use zip/tar.gz/7z/rar to do the compress in Windows.Because I do the compress in Windows, so when I extract the package in Linux, the file permission is reset.The problem is Only the tar.gz can let me extract runable files, other format (zip/7z/rar) not (the file permission is reset to 644).So my question is how to compress my files using zip/7z/rar while reset the permission to 755.

Ubuntu :: Compress And Encrypt Files / Folders?

Oct 30, 2010

I currently have a bash script that runs and backs up my daily files onto a separate partition using Rsync, but I thought it would be good to use the Ubuntu-one service as an ADDITIONAL backup for really important files.

How do I compress then encrypt those files, and can I add any commands that will do this to my existing bash script?

I am running Ubuntu 10.04

CentOS 5 :: Compress Files / Folders With Low Priority

Oct 23, 2009

Is there is anyway, with tar, zip, gzip, or any file compression type to compress without causing high CPU. In other words, limit how hard the CPU works to compress it? Of course I understand that this would cause the compression to take longer but time isn't too big of a concern.

General :: Compress Some Folders Containing Backup Files From Last Year?

Jul 24, 2010

Today I tried to compress some folders containing backup files from last year. I right-clicked on the folders and selected compress as tar.gz. I let it work, and found that hours later, the folders were still compressing. How long is it supposed to take, anyway? I was trying to compress the two sets of backups simultaneously; together they're around 1.5 GB. They have many subdirectories.

Software :: File Extractor (rar, 7z, Ect) For Part Files Compress By Winrar?

Apr 12, 2010

I download a lot of files that have been compressed into separate pieces by winrar, so that a 4gb file will be shown as dozen or so 93mb peices. In windows, using winrar, extracting them was rather easy but in Kubuntu whatever default program is being used throws a fit. In a perfect world I would want to get a open source alternative from synaptic, alternatively anything I can download in RPM I can eventually figure out. I want to avoid trying to get winrar working under wine.

Software :: How To Edit The Initrd.img (decompress And Compress)

Oct 18, 2010

I need to recreate my initrd.img after having extracted its contents. Bash by itself; pointing me to similar threads in this forum and google are useless to me and a waste of everyone's time as that has all failed. I need a working example. Apparently, I am supposed to use this bash command (s): "zcat ../initrd.gz | cpio -i -d." The preceding command is unintelligible to me. I cannot compress the initrd.img file and folders back into an initrd.gz file with a compression level of 9, so that I can rename with a .img extension.

My understanding of recompressing folders back into the initrd.img: Google and this forum all point to bash involving either zcat or cpio and then gzip with a compression level of 9. However, I require exacting instructions for using these commands to compress the folders that have been extracted from the initrd.img back into one homogenous initrd.gz archive so that that the created initrd.gz can be renamed initrd.img

Note: posting bash without that an example is a waste of everyone's time as I found that on Google and it was useless as I lack the requisite computer science degree or years of Linux guru experience needed to figure out how to specify the arguements proprerly. What I need is a working example, not just bash.

Note2: To save time, the answer to why I need to edit the initrd.img is this: Two different utilities (based upon the same parent system & kernel) use the same initrd and the same file paths. When they are installed on separate partitions and the one farthest from the mbr is selected for boot, it will begin to boot and then switch to the one closest to the mbr, which results in a failed boot. If one is removed, the other boots fine, so it's not a menu.lst or a lilo config problem.
