I am trying to copy aux on to a larger capacity drive. The problem comes when I have to copy /dev. Here is what I already tried.. 1. cp -r -wont copy /dev and changes owners to root. 2. tar -wont copy /dev. and makes directory permissions rwxrwxrwx.(all kinds of errors) 3. cpio -same as tar. 4. dumpfs is not on aux anymore so.... Any help?
