Hi
It looks like the -n option is not available on Blackhole. I would like to copy all recorded movies from the hdd/movie location to the usb/movie location without overwriting files

cp -n /media/hdd/movie/* /media/usb/movie/

the folowing option also dos not work

cp -i /media/hdd/movie/* /media/usb/movie/

Can somebody tell me how i can do this?

Regards

cp -dav to copy also subdirs, for instance.
If you check the copy command of the image you can read the available options.
Enigma2 images are NOT linux itself.

Hi, it looks like it is not possible to use a copy command (cp) attribute which skips already existing files on the destination drive.
