Thanks again for the feedback!!! Just for the record. The backing up of the whole files took on Fedora 18 using LUKS (encryption):
[pau@localhost 500GB]$ time \cp -pr bin fitx_confg andromina correu ejcaip grafia lib smbin baconaes Documents escriptori include temporal kdenlive musica treball /home/pau/ real 106m48.828s user 0m8.427s sys 8m28.319s I.e. some 1.7 hours instead of the14 hours it took with OpenBSD... :( :( I will keep a partition with obsd on it and "train" with it to follow -current Then I will come back! Thanks again to all of you.
