I just hate replying to my own messages, but I caught a bug (although too late
for
inclusion in the original email) and decided I'd better fix it. The following
commands
should work better:
cd /
find . -xdev -depth -print | cpio -pdm /mnt
I guess I need to do a better job of controlling my enthusiasm. :-)
