CPIO archives

[Bryan O'Neal]

I just noticed the tag - 01001010 01100101 01110011 01110101 01110011
01010011 01100001 01110110 01100101 01110011 - I like it ;)

I prefer St. Augustine though,

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?

Nathan
