Hello, The above mentioned web page and script shows a usage of cpio(1) which I have never seen before: cpio -dump ${tmpdir}/img I was curious, looked into the man page of cpio(1) and even in the online manual at http://www.gnu.org/software/cpio/manual/cpio.html but did not saw anything about the option '-dump'; can someone bring a light to me?
