Hello friends,

There is a ASCII cpio archive(SVR4 with on CRC), would you please tell me how many methods or utitlities can be used for extracting such kind of archive? the more, the better.

Code:

root@benjamin-virtual-machine:/GPL/tmp/ramdisk# file out64c 
out64c: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC)
root@benjamin-virtual-machine:/GPL/tmp/ramdisk#

Any reply will be appreciated. Thank you all.

Have you tried the -c option of cpio?

Hello kakaka,

Thank you for your advice, I have tried those options. And then it works.

Code:

root@gpl-vm:/GPL/test/ufsd/pearl/PX-8690/7800HB-german-20111011/ramdisk# cpio -i -F out64c

Heads up that Apple's San Franciso fonts are free.

https://developer.apple.com/fonts/

As for extracting them... it's three commands. "7z x" on the dmg file, "7z x" on the pkg file inside, "cpio -i" on the "Payload~" file inside the pkg file.

EDIT: pardon the necropost. I actually meant to post this in another thread.
