raw fs backup/copy

2011-01-06 Thread Ivan Labáth
Is there a reason one can not mount a btrfs and it's byte-for-byte copy in parallel, or is the driver just acting silly? Mini example: # dd if=/dev/zero of=fs1 bs=1 count=1 seek=$((1024*1024*1024-1)) # mkfs.btrfs fs1 # cp --sparse=always fs1 fs2 # mkdir 1 2 # mount fs1 1 -o loop # mount fs2 2 -o
