I used cpio command to backup some files,
find . -print | cpio -ov > backup.cpio 2>errmsg
In errmsg I got processed file names
and the end was:
7889920 blocks
1 error(s)
But I couldn't find any error message searching
whole errmsg file.
What error is cpio reporting?
 
Are there many files in the errmsg file? Could you have missed the error? One way to check might be:

[tt]grep -v '^[.]' errmsg[/tt]

Annihilannic.
