Hi all, I'm wanting to make my linux partition slightly smaller to make room for that other OS. I've got / on a reiserfs partition, which i believe cannot beresized at the start, so I'll have to backup the whole system, repartition, and restore. No sweat, I've done this before.
However, I've just run into a problem I've never encountered (or never knew I encountered) before - I'm getting messages saying "socket such_and_such skipped. There were two in the /dev directory - flew past too quickly tho, I don't know what they are - and a couple in the /var/spool/postfix eg: prw--w--w- 1 postfix postdrop 0 2005-07-18 01:27 pickup I got the error both with cp -av and tar cfv Will these sockets be recreated once I run postfix after restoring the system, or is there another way to safely backup and restore them?
