This tool removes blocks of 0x00 from files by replacing them with
|
|
phantomblocks. That way, a file uses less diskspace while its contents
|
|
hasn't changed at all!
|
|
|
|
BEWARE: after copying these files with tar, cp, cpio or any other tool,
|
|
the phantomblocks have been replaced with 0x00-blocks again!
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE:
|
|
|
|
find / -type f -print | xargs -n 1 phantom -r -i
|
|
|
|
This would go trough the whole harddisk, scan all files and generate
|
|
0x00-blocks where necessary.
