Doubt this will make any difference, but i used the tar program that came along with the latest firmware. It was there by default, never had to install it despite what the instructions said.
Yes tar is there by default on all firmware, but it is busybox not genuine GNU tar. Follow the instruction completely ie: use GNU tar and see if that fixes your problem. busybox tar will not copy everything.....
