Hello, I think I\'m missing something obvious : I get the error \"unexpected EOF in archive\" when I\'m trying to untar a large backup tar. How can I extract as most files as possible from the tar ? Do I need something else to fix it, similar to bzip2recover ? I have tried unsucessfully --ignore-zeros and --ignore-failed-read Thanks for any hint !
