I took a look at the source. It looks like flashcp only writes to the partition. I'm not really sure what the value add of flashcp is. It looks like a simple open/read/write sort of application. Seems like dd would do the same thing except that this has a progress report option. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
