Now the testcase passes.However, there is still an issue in tar, the one I encountered first: it removes the root symlinks ! I will investigate that in a different thread.There's probably more to this than my trivial patch does to get the basic test working. Essentially fleshing out the unifs functions.
For now, you can add the '-h' option to tar..... e.g... tar -C / -xvhf xxxx.tar Should help. Alan.
