Since we've apparently confirmed that /media/richard/MISC-backups/ is on a separate filesystem from /, it really looks to me as if this too-deep directory chain may exist within the source tree, in some form. The only comment I've found from you on this point seems to be a statement that yes, such a chain existed, but after you deleted it, it came back the next time you tried the copy. If that's correct, then there must be something intervening to cause the chain to be re-created; the cp command should not be capable of modifying its source argument, unless its destination is under its source (which would obviously cause problems). If it's not correct, then I'd be interested to know what is in fact there, and what might have caused it to exist (or not). -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
