CPIO help

Help !!!

somehow I have overwritten my valid copies of the Tivo cpio with a non-working version. Where can I get an original version of CPIO ??

I do have a working tar but it is giving me this when I try to extract tivo-binaries.tar

/var/tar -t <tivo-binaries.tar
Hmm, this doesn't look like a tar archive
/var/tar: Skipping to next file header

Thanks for all suggestions!

Here ya go

Hope this helps, it's off a series 1 SA Tivo running 3.0. It's not a zip file though, just rename it to cpio and ftp it to your tivo. It goes in the /bin directory.
