I wasn't thinking about 'live' so much as just a complicated system |
28 |
with multiple hard drives/partitions. For instance, copying /home |
29 |
where here are links to other partitions for /home/users1, |
30 |
/home/user2, etc. I wouldn't want to copy those other users along with |
31 |
/home/user3 that resides on the /home partition physically. |
