>But the default blocksize for TAR is 20. (Always has been, always will be :-)
ok, I give up.  20 *what*? kilobytes?  512-byte blocks?  bytes?  or some
logical block size?
Whatever it is, its a pity it doesn't work on the 3B20, I've run into this
problem several times already.  The single outstanding quality of TAR was
that it was so universal among UNIX* machines.  Not any more!
