I'm looking to build a lightweight tar binary for using in my custom recovery as it doesn't support large tar files (<2GB).
The busybox version in my cwm recovery is 1.20.1 and it doesn't support large files, so I'm looking to build a lightweight tar binary to use in my ramdisk. The recovery size is limited to 6MB, so there is no option in my knowledge to update the busybox with a newer version in the recovery itself. I currently tested replacing the hard-linked tar binary with adb shell and it worked like a charm but I'm looking to replace it in the ramdisk, so I don't have to replace it every time I'm going to restore my backup. ======================================== And what is the use of binaries in this directory: https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.27.1-i686/ ======================================== Can I use them as a standalone binary? Best regards, David
