I tried to untar using the command tar -xvzmf.
The error I got after tar runs for sometime was :
---------------------------------------
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
----------------------------------------
on doing a fsck.ext3 i get the result as:
--------------------------------------------------------------
/dev/sda2: ********** WARNING: Filesystem still has errors **********

Also, did you fsck.ext3 your filesystem lately? Christian.
