[PATCH] e2image: add -a switch to include all data

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Normally the raw and QCOW2 images only contain fs metadata.
Add a new switch ( -a ) to include all data.  This makes it
possible to use e2image to clone a whole filesystem.
