Hi,
Can a filename/linkname header be split across multiple tapes ? Say
while we are in the middle of writing a link name, we get ENOSPC, then
we prompt for the next tape. At this point do we continue for the
remaining bytes in the link name, or does CPIO start over again for
the link name. I had a breif look at the code and it seems that we
continue for the remaining bytes in the link path. Please let me know
if im correct.

Also is it ever possible for the cpio file hdr (110 bytes) to be
split across multiple tapes ?

Best Regards,
Sivram U
