Try getting the sources and configuring the package with the large file support (enabled by default for version 2.6 of cpio. For earlier versions you will need to set CFLAGS=-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 before running configure). Regards, Sergey The information contained in this email is confidential and may be privileged.
