CPIO archives

[Nathan Aubrey]

All,

<dunce cap on>

I have a cpio archive that I am trying to extract. I would like to dump the 
entire archive, change some files then re-create the archive. But everytime I 
try to extract the archive it over-writes files in my / directory tree... 
very bad!

cpio -i < archive.cpio

How do I extract it and force it to a specific tree?
