Hi folk, I have DSL2.2b running on partition-5 (/dev/hd5/) of a HD. It is working there without problem. I need to clone it on /dev/sda1 of a pendrive. /dev/sda1 has 800MB in capacity, sufficient to take up DSL2.2b.
I can't use "dd" command because of unequal size. So after mounting both devices I ran; # cp -aR /mnt/hda5/* /mnt/sda1/ ........ ........ cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttyw6': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttyw7': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttyw8': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttyw9': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttywa': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttywb': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttywc': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttywd': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttywe': Operation not permitted cp: cannot create special file `/mnt/sda1/dev/ttywf': Operation not permitted ... * * * end * * * Still failed. I have to force-stop the process. Is there a way to do the job. If YES, Please advise what command line shall I use? TIA Remark: the DSL on /dev/hda5 was not running. I ran a LiveCD to do the job B.R.
