I am using mirrordir to make a duplicate copy of one hard drive on the system to another for backup purpose and just recently had some modifications made to the kernel. Now I get the following message in the output from my cron backup job: mirrordir: unable to open file for writing: /mnt/kernel: Operation not permitted The basic command I have in my backup script if the following: /usr/local/bin/mirrordir --exclude /proc --exclude /mnt / /mnt The only other thing I really do in the script is to cancel the backup job if the source files are less than 95% in size than what's on the backup (which I can override if I want). Anyone have any ideas what I might need to do fix this. I would like the script to backup the kernel as well automatically.
