Re: How to make an archive
What type of archive? Generally, you open a bash session, move to the directory (or the parent of the directory) you want to archive and type something similar to:
"tar -cvzf archiveName.tgz [directory or files]"
I don't have a bash terminal available here, so I'm doing that from memory.
v - verbose
f - write/read to/from file
z - use gzip compression
c - create?? (need to check this one)
Or are you talking about some other archive?
