To get some idea what's going on, change the first tar options to
     -vclpSf
and see what that looks like.  If that looks fine, then try changing that
back to the original, and add a "v" to the second tar options.

Subject: tar command not working - copying /usr to /mnt


We're using the procedure at  www.linuxvm.org to copy /usr to an lvm

When we enter the tar command (below) ... the prompt comes right back...

                                                                       
                                                                       
      1. tar -clpSf - . | (cd /mnt ; tar -xpSf - )                     
                                                                       
                                                                       




Any ideas?
