After a failed drive and some user I have had to rebuild my server.

 

I am trying to copy one of my old unraid disks over to the new server using this http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php?title=Copy_files_from_a_NTFS_drive tutorial but substituting reiserfs for ntfs.

 

When I run the command "mount -r -t reiserfs /dev/sdc /mnt/old_data" I get "mount: bad fs tip, wrong option, etc.."

 

I figure my issue is with /dev/sdc but I'm not sure what to put here. If I go into unraid's devices page the drive is at /dev/sdc/

 

Help much appreciated.

The file system would be on the first partition, so you would need to use /dev/sdc1, not /dev/sdc in the mount command.

That got me one step further.

 

After changing to the new directory I try and copy with "cp -r * /mnt/disk1" I get the error "cp: cannot stat '*': no such file or directory"

then the directory you are in is empty.

 

You probably want to

cd to /mnt/old_data

then

cp -r * /mnt/disk1

 

or something like that.

Sorry for the confusion, I did cd /mnt/old_data. Should there be a space on both sides of the *? What is the command to list the contents of /mnt/old_data/?

yes

ls
