There was another post similar to this a few days back which I found for you that you might want to read. It pertained to cloning an entire HD locally, but it should be able to be used for just a directory or just a file. Read about it http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtop...light=local%2A there. I think you can change the hda to hda/somedirectory/somesubdir/someothersubdir/so.on. And copy from one to the other. Anyway hope this helps. If not good luck.
