Boot with an Ubuntu CD. There's a neat tool called dd that can do direct byte for byte copies. If the cards are identical in size you can do this:
dd if=/dev/DEVICE-OF-ORIGINAL of=/dev/DEVICE-OF-BACKUP You can also make a backup to a file the same way: dd if=/dev/DEVICE-OF-ORIGINAL of=/home/user/BACKUP.dat You can even compress the output dd if=/dev/DEVICE-OF-ORIGINAL | bzip2 -c - > /home/user/BACKUP.dat.bz2 -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58928 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
