    184184To create a tarball which is the most flexible storage format and can be used for a variety of future installation uses:
    185185{{{#!bash
    186 sudo tar --numeric-owner -cvJf xenial-newport.tar.xz rootfs/ .
    187 }}}
     186sudo tar --numeric-owner -cvJf xenial-newport.tar.xz -C rootfs/ .
     187}}}
     188 * the '--numeric-owner' is required to store user/group as a number instead of a name
     189 * the '-C rootfs/' is required to eliminate the rootfs directory prefix
     190 * the sudo is needed to be able to read the root owned files
    188191
    189192To create a 'Compressed Disk Image' using this tarball see [#disk-images above] and to install this onto a board's embedded FLASH see [wiki:newport#serial-ethernet here].
