I think I need to go back to basics here to get out of a hole: |
2 |
|
3 |
I have move my /usr onto a different machine as part of a migration |
4 |
exercise, but the partition in question will barely contain it. Is |
5 |
there a way of running tar so that: |
6 |
|
7 |
1. Only part of /usr is untarred in a different partition (all of |
8 |
/usr/*, except /usr/portage which I want to eventually untar it and keep |
9 |
it in there). |
10 |
2. Those directories which are untarred are also removed from the .tgz |
11 |
file so that there is enough space left behind to untar the /usr/portage |
12 |
directory. |
13 |
3. Finally, /usr/portage is now untarred into the said partition and the |
14 |
tgz file is deleted thereafter. |
15 |
|
16 |
Could you please help with the command/piping syntax? |
