I am trying to copy /home/user from one RH9 machine to another RH9 machine, using a CDR; but the files and directories lose their permissions. How should this be done properly, please?
WHAT I'VE DONE SO FAR: I used a CDR, and syntax from RH8 Bible by Negus, p471. mkisofs -o /var/tmp/user.cd /home/user cdrecord -v speed=10 dev=0,0,0 -data /var/tmp/user.cd WHAT HAPPENS: On copying the files and directories into the new /home/user directory, icons are labeled as user not having necessary permissions. e.g., /evolution has changed from 700 to 555, /stuff has changed from 755 to 555, and a .html file has changed from 664 to 555. WHAT I THINK THE PROBLEM IS: A CD is an archive media, and so it's something in the way I made the CD,- but what should have been the way to do this, please?
