<title>Installation of Tar</title>
<para>
If you want to be able to directly use bzip2 files with tar, use the tar
patch avaiable from the LFS FTP site. This patch will add the -y option
to tar which works the same as the -z option to tar (which you can use
for gzip files).

<para>
Apply the patch by running the following command:
