My friend and I have installed debian, but he has not signed up to this list.
He just got a new larger hard drive for debian, and wanted to move his installed setup onto the new one. I have the old one mounted as root, and the new one mounted on '/mnt'. I have run mkfs on the new HD. I need to know how to copy the files from the old to the new, without having and links destroyed, and without entering the neverending loop with regards to '/mnt/mnt/mnt/...'. All attempts that I have done have resulted in files that links pointed being copies, instead of just making a link, and having '/mnt' copied recursively. Thanks ahead of time for your help.
