[SLUG] CPIO problem..fixed...I hope.



Hey guys..

I've never ever needed to do this until now.
My cpio problem was that I needed to specify a block size (cpio -ocvB
--block-size=4096 -O /dev/st0).

Weird.. as I never had to before but so far the files are still going.

My question is: Why is it sometimes I see it gets I/O errors depending on
the BS value?
4096 seems to be working fine...

thanks,
