Thanks to Bernd Schemmer who suggested I use the -I option to ignore the
integrity check - works a charm.

Thanks also to Iain Miller for his suggestion.

Subject: Flash archive from a filelist only


All,

I've been trying without success to create a flash archive using a filelist.
For example I've installed oracle and ran

`# find /oracle > /tmp/filelist`


now I want to create a flash archive of only the files + dirs in
/tmp/filelist.  I've tried using

`# flarcreate -n "test" -S -c -f /tmp/filelist /Flash_Archives/test.flar`

but looking in the flash archive with `flar info -l` shows that I have files
from /var and all other dirs in there.

Looking at the man pages it seems I wanted to use a -F option to "include
only
file in the list specified buy the -f", but that produces the following
error:

"ERROR: File / registered in package database - can not be excluded."
"ERROR: Integrity check failed."

Can anyone point me in the correct direction?


Regards

Rob Brown
