Well, I think this is the part that I always used to believe, but upon reflection find to be not true. Of course everyone has their own way of doing things, but cp -a <dir>/ <newdir> is the same, whether going from a directory in a partition with other directories to a drive or drive to drive. Anyway, this is one dead horse I'm not going to dance to -- even if it does seem to have a good beat. ;) -- "Trying to do something with your life is like sitting down to eat a moose." --Douglas Wood
