Re: Copy everything bar one folder



SteVe Cook a écrit :
I want to copy everything bar one very large folder from my current
/home partition to another smaller partition and make this new partition
/home.

The only real problem I'm having is finding out how to copy all the
files bar one. I could copy a few at a time I suppose but that seems
rather long winded.

Trawling round the web hasn't produced any answers. Any body got any ideas

SteVe


I would like to help but I can't understand the "bar" thing :(
