Jeff, Bzip2 is a compression format. A single file is compressed. If there are multiple files, then it is probably a tar.bz2 file. So you will need to uncompress it and add files to the tar file then recompress it.
$ bunzip2 file.tar.bz2 $ tar rf file.tar anotherfile $ bzip2 file.tar -- Joseph Olt <mailto:[email protected]> From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeff Poling Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2010 1:51 PM To: [email protected] Subject: bzip2 question Sorry for the basic question. I am still getting up to speed after taking over our linux admin role. I have a file that I need to add to an existing bz2 file. How do I do that?
