Oh, yes, indeed. Nevertheless, the first two messages: > tar: /home/share/D60/725CANON/CRW_2526.CRW: Cannot extract -- file is > continued from another volume > tar: Skipping to next header are perfectly in order: they indicate that tar is skipping the partial member. The fact that it does not find any subsequent member indicates that CRW_2526.CRW is continued on volumes 147 and 148. To compare, here's what I get running tar-1.16.1 on one of my multivolume backups: $ tar -xMv $(seq -f"--file=arc/b%g.tar" -s' ' 157 292) ./radwtmp tar: ./radwtmp: Cannot extract -- file is continued from another volume tar: Skipping to next header ./TAGS ./build.emris tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors $ ls TAGS build.emris Here, the file `radwtmp' was occupying volumes 157-291 and, partially 292. It was therefore skipped. Other two files were found on vol. 292 and were extracted. Please, verify whether the file in question spans all three volumes. > Do you think that my use of the POSIX format for multi-volume archives > might be causing problems? No, I don't think so.
