The original appears to have been delayed or lost -- maybe by the list-management software -- so I'm resending this.
Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2003 14:17:08 +0100 From: Tim Waugh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: directory mounted with --bind causes cp -R to fail Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Original bug report at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=86302 Under Linux it is possible to have a special 'bind' mount type, which has the effect of remounting part of the file hierarchy somewhere else. But this confuses 'cp --preserve=links': Run these commands as root: mkdir -p src/{x,y} mount --bind src/x src/y cp --archive --one-file-system src dst Is this a cp bug, or expected behaviour?
