I notice that these files are extracted with the command: cat bin.?? | tar --unlink -xpzf - -C ${DESTDIR:-/} Suppose I do extract these files, replace the /root/.cshrc file alone with my custom one, how do I get them back to the format that is in the CD distribution? Any advice/pointers will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
