Hi...
But when I try to extract it, it tries to overwrite my host root FS (/etc, /usr 
etc) which ofcourse I don't want:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]$  cpio -idv <data.cpio
cpio: /lost+found: Operation not permitted
/lost+found
cpio: /bin: Operation not permitted
/bin
The best option I can offer (after reading man cpio) is by using --no-absolute-filenames during copy-in operation. About creating /sys, maybe you can simply create "sys" directory and include that into cpio archieve. Usually, I use midnight commander to dig into cpio archieve, so I rarely know the details on creating and modifying it.

regards,

Mulyadi
