Is this because the cp -R :tries to copy /proc ?? : :| / o / / _ Arnhem, The Netherlands - Powered by FreeBSD - :|/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte WWW : http://www.tcja.nl http://www.freebsd.org It seems to me that a cp command like is probably trying to cp -R /mnt to /mnt ... /* will include /mnt, right? I'm not sure what would be causing the errors, though, unless the cp is recursing endlessly due to the cp of /mnt on top of /mnt and running the filesystem out of space... -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
