[ale] Help me build a new /home

[Evan Pitstick]

Not a very good play on words....

Anyways I am trying to make an exact copy of my /home to a new HD I 
installed so that I can replace my old home partition with a fancy new 
400GB drive of its very own. I dont want to use cp -r as I dont think it 
will get the drive done and I tried find . -depth -print0 | cpio -pvd0 
--sparce but I get a two many arguments error. does anybody know of a 
good way of getting a good exact copy?
