How about posting the command you used and the full error?

I suspect that you have not unmounted proc, shm etc etc and are not logged in as root.

You do need to be root. cp -rp or cp -a will/should get everything.

Post that command. We'll hammer away at it.

:D :D :D :D

thanks

:) now it works
i forgot to unmount the proc

just for archives sake..........you'll need to umount /dev/pts
also........
