Well sonny in the old days we would create a volume with tar or cpio, then
uuencode it, then run it through split. You could then move the split
pieces onto removable media and reassemble it on another system.
To put split piece back together you just cat them:
cat split2 split2 > total.uu
then uudecode it to restore the original file.
