Some weeks ago, I did this kind of migration. I ended up using good ol' tar - after lots of research, it was the only way I found to be sure hard links would still be linked in the new filesystem. IIRC, rsync does not deal with hard links, or am I mistaken? -- Nuno J. Silva (aka njsg) gopher://sdf-eu.org/1/users/njsg
