Hi rsync'ers. What can you recommend to create the initial backup of a partition before calling rsync (under Linux, 100 GB, 10M files, only normal files and some soft links)?
(Using rsync takes too long for this initial copy.) Here are some candidates: 1. star -copy -no-fsync -p -xdot -C $1 . $2 2. tar -C $1 -cf - . | tar -C $2 -xf - 3. cp -a $1 $2 4. cpio ... ... Any experiences? Sven
