To write this to an SD card, first partition the SD card to have one large ext4 partition. See the guide here for more information. Once it is formatted, extract this tar with:

# Assuming your SD card is /dev/sdc with one partition
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1
mkdir /mnt/sd/
sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/sd/
sudo tar -jxf ts-x11-image-ts4900-quad.rootfs.tar.bz2 -C /mnt/sd
sudo umount /mnt/sd
sync
