Subject: Copying files..
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 1996 15:26:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19960819142609.GrTX05XfB4TKqvg-UE0Reu_3DpouB_LkgUmL6uUtAYk@z> (raw)
to copy or install just part of the distribution, you will normally
want to use variants of
disk/mkfs -a -s /n/cdrom aprotofile | disk/mkext -u -d thedestinationroot
where `aprotofile' is a file describing the part of the hierarchy
you'd like to copy. see the mkfs manual page and examples in
/lib/proto
mkfs/mkext will ensure that ownership, times, modes, etc stay
as they should. to retain ownership and times, you'll need to enable
`allow' mode on the file server in most cases, or issue
disk/kfscmd allow
if the destination file system is on a local disc.
