Hi,

I try the Split command and it split the big file into a set of smaller files, 
Is there a way to restore some files without getting back together all the 
files that makes the split?


Thanks.

The tar image is going to be generated as one big stream, but since you are 
working with the command line you could pipe through gzip and split (-b) if you 
would like to have it split into a set of smaller
files for easier transport.   You would then have to reconstruct the
original stream by zcat'ing the parts back together for tar to eventually 
extract the original files.
