Tom:

What type of file-system was originally copied to the USB hard-drive, and what type of file-system are you copying it to?

I'm baffled by a problem which I'm having on my Lubuntu install [15.04] on my Dell Inspiron which is NOT occurring on my HP Mini 110 netbook. The OS installation on the HP netbook is identical to that on the Dell so far as I know.

In trying to copy several large directories from a backup USB harddrive, I get a refusal to copy on the Dell due to a number (several hundred) of filenames' being too long.

I NEED to complete this directory copy. Can anyone advise me as to how to resolve this problem?

Thanks!

Tom
