crashed HD file transfer
I created a bootable CD from Slax and can now access my crashed HD files. Problem is I can't move them to my USB HD even though the device is recognized. From what I have learned, I must "mount" the old HD and the good USB drive and then enter a copy command to permit the transfer (many GB's).

Can anyone guide me through the process?

Thanks

What does
Code:
 ls -al

show for file permissions?

Did you try
Code:
 cp -Rp *.* /path/to/usb/mount

?
