I got the error message, but the hard link was never copied (there were not two files with the same inode -- only the original file. I omitted the '-l' option in the cp calls in the patch. 'make doc' succeeded without any errors, so I thought I had success. But it turns out that a) I appear not to have the .css files copied (at least the output showed no css -- just basic white screen), and b) I appear not to have the image files copied (there are no images that show up in any of the pages accessible from www-out/offline-root). Does it make sense to try again with the xargs part of the patch, but using the GNU cp and find? Carl
