copy a whole partition excluding specified.
Scenario: I would want to copy my / to /mnt, and to avoid recursion exclude /mnt. Code:
cp -avx / /mnt If i use the above i believe it would run recursively, and end up in mess. So how to do it ?! Basically this / is sda1, and /mnt is sda2 and sda1 is where only OS is available & currently booted. Ultimately, my question is how to backup a path, by excluding a specific directory. I cannot boot in Live CD and copy. Anybody have experience in doing this, and have some efficient way to do this ? |
