CPIO will not extract File
 

I download this file and it is .cpio i tried extracting the file using the command "cpio -iv cpio_file" but the cursor just moves the other line and nothing happens, is there something i'm doing wrong. I've check and i do have the cpio package installed on my PC, is CPIO program the only program that is capable of opening the file, i have SUSE Pro installed.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Try this:

cpio -iv < cpio_file

'Hope that helps .. PSM

Is there ah way to just extract everything at one time . Thenks for ur help
