rsync -aH Capitalization is critical here. Option -x (do not cross devices) is not the same as -X (extendended attributes). > -serge I would like to know where rsync is not available. If rsync is available then "rsync -H" is available. That is my concern with busybox. They are very POSIX compliant and I'm not sure this is a POSIX feature. I run into this all the time in Android and TinyCore (I've had to recode things to run under busybox ash shell under TinyCore). I trust rsync better than cp in differing environments for that very reason. I know what rsync will support (if it's there). I don't always know what options cp will support.
