Hello all! I am trying to back up a 6 gig harddrive with "dd" I want to "save" a complete Windows disk to be able to recreate it later. Kind of a rescue image I have booted from a SuSE 9.0 boot cd and mounted a networkdrive on /mnt i then do "dd if=/dev/hda of=/mnt/image.dd " but i get: dd: writing to '/mnt/image.dd': File to large 4195234+0 records in 4195234+0 records out dd: closing output file '/mnt/image.dd': File to large Is there a easy way to get around the problem? How do i fix the system for larger files? The source FS is NTFS The targer FS is ReiserFS (on the network disk) /Rikard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rikard Johnels email : rjhn@linux.nu Web : http://www.rikjoh.com Mob : +46 70 464 99 39 ------------------------ Public PGP fingerprint ---------------------------- < 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 >
