No cargo cult at all. Each tool has its advantages. The two I appreciate in dd are: - status=progress -- indicates how far the copy is. - oflag=direct and siblings, which let you fine-tune when to flush out stuff (mitigating the long wait at the end where the system seems to be doing nothig) There sure others. There are downsides to it, as well... Cheers -- t
