Note that dump/restore isn't a very fast method to clone a file system. Actually, a few years ago it was horribly slow, but it was improved somewhat. It's better now, but still not very fast. Personally I recommend to try cpdup (from ports/sysutils). You can simply type "cpdup /src /dst" and it will make an exact copy (except for sparse files). A nice feature of cpdup is that it doesn't copy files that already exist in the destination. Another way copy a directory tree is to use find+cpio: cd /src; find -d . | cpdio -dump /dst Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co. KG, Marktplatz 29, 85567 Grafing b. M.
