Repost: TAR command issue

I am moving this item to its own post because it turned out to not be related to the original item.

I have been having a problem when attempting to create a VM using the VMs provided by JumpBox (www.jumpbox.com). It seems to get stuck untarring the data drive or any tar for that matter. My hypervisor system locks up completely when I simply try to untar the file at the command line. It requires me to do a hard power reset of the server to recover from the lock.

The file is a 10g compressed file which on my other (standard Oracle Linux) box decompresses in 1 second. I can then transfer the file using sftp to the Oracle VM server and create the VM with no problems.

I have not retested since changing the /OVS partition to sync. Could leaving this as default been the problem?
