Hello group,
I am tring to tar Redhat 7.2 to one file then take that file and ftp
to a bare bones install of 7.2 on another machine. in hopes to expand
it and have all of it there. I guess like a disk image.
I will start up the current box with init -s in hopes to have most
files closed during tar operation.
can I just use :-> tar cfz archive.tar.gz /
will that do it?
