It just stops like it's at the end of the tar ffile. No errors at all.

I have just completed installing CentOS 4.2 (I came over here from Fedora-Land (core-3)). I did this via a fresh install. I tar'd everything to an external drive reinstalled the new stuff and everything is working very well.
I've just got one issue. I have a full system backup Backup.tar that has a size of 78,717,880,320. When I issue the command tar -xvf Backup.tar I get only about 111MB of data restored. Basically /root and a couple other odd things of little consequence.
And then what happens? Does it give you an error message? Does it just stop restoring? Does it slow way down?
