Well I am a bit embarrassed having to ask what is really a newbie question
and it is way off subject for this list. I need to move a Linux systems
from a small drive to a large drive. I have it all set up in mount have no
problem with lilo and all the other info in the howto but need a bit of
info on how to use cpio to move the whole mess. The old drive has only two
partitions I have broken the new drive up to several. I think that cpio
would be the best bet but heck I haven't figured out the syntax to do it.
Could someone on the list give me the proper syntax to make this move that
would perserve all the links, permissions and directory structure in on
command.
