>tar xvif filename.tar.bz2

As an fyi, the 'i' (lowercase) option to tar (at least in ver 7.2 of
Mandrake):

'-i, --ignore-zeros ignore blocks of zeros in archive (normally mean EOF)'

This comes from the man page.  This is different from 'I' which says:

'-I, --bzip2 filter archive through bzip2, use to decompress .bz2 files'

in the man pages.  So there is a difference.
