}Ok,
}  I'm trying to use CPIO to do a filesystem backup to a Jaz drive
}so I won't have to re-install before I'm able to recover.  The boot/root
}
}disks that redhat builds doesn't recognize my Scsi-Tape...
}I'm currently doing the following:
}
}find . -mount -print | grep -v proc | cpio -o > /jaz/sdc.cpio

Just a hunch, try 'cpio -oc > /jaz/sdc.cpio'

You may want to consider throwing in a 'gzip' in your pipe stream to save
some space. ;)

}
}I keep getting messages about truncating inodes.
}Anyone see an option I'm missing or know a better way?

}P.S.:  Will the Tom who helped me with ppp please reply?
