:But does /mnt/tmp/hugo exist?  You are trying to copy the directory,

:Either:
:
:cp -r /hugo /mnt/tmp

:
:mkdir /mnt/tmp/hugo
:cp /hugo/* /mnt/tmp/hugo

:P.S. If this is not your problem and I am way off you can just ignore me. :)

Not that I've analyzed the issue at all, but it looks like he did a 
'touch /hugo' (if I recall the original email), so 'hugo' would be a 
regular file.
