While attempting to untar a .tar file the file also untar's in the sys:
volume. I cannot find a way to change my CWD to another volumes or
directory. I have tried this both from the system console and from
Bash. Anyone have an idea of how to get aroung this CWD issue or how to
redirect output from sys: to vol1:

Thanks,

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Are you untarring a file and it's
putting the files in SYS and you want them in vol1?
