Do any file names contains spaces or other characters that the shell might (mis)interpret? Try copying with rsync or at least the old tar | tar method (followed by manual checksum comparison). You should really use rsync to do any non-trivial amount of copying. The probability of a bit (or even page) error on multi-gigabyte data is positive. -Jeff On Fri, Oct 27, 2006 at 08:23:45AM -0400, Michael Lazin wrote: > [50 lines, 253 words, 1569 characters] Top characters: e_toi>n\n > > I got the error on the copy.
