Katz" Subject: cpio copies - file corruption??? In-Reply-To: References: <353B0B32.1247C573@kk.ericsson.se> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have just noticed that some text (and binary) files are being corrupted when cpio copying. I have seen this on FreeBSD 2.1.0, 2.1.7, 2.2.5, and 2.2.6. I originally thought it was because I was copying through an NFS mount but then I tried to copy from one partition to the next on a 2.2.6 machine and got the same kind of results, various files having parts of other files and junk in them... Is there something I need to know about the way you people are getting files across??
