fsarchiver is a system tool that allows you to save the contents of a filesystem to a compressed archive file. The filesystem can be restored on a partition that has a different size, and it can be restored on a different filesystem. Unlike tar/dar, fsarchiver also creates the filesystem when it extracts the data to partitions. Everything is checksummed in the archive in order to protect the data. If the archive is corrupt, you just lose the current file, not the whole archive.

Changes:
This release fixes two bugs: it was not possible to restore an ext{2,3.4} partition if it was mounted read/write during the savefs, and opening an archive may fail in restfs for no reason.
