    Use a kernel version that still has support to perform the copy before upgrading? If already upgraded, boot to the old kernel? Boot from a live iso that has support?

    I mean, this isn’t exactly a hard problem to solve…

      I guess I gotta put an old Slackware cd in with that drawer full of reiser drives.

        The 6.10 kernel has not even been released yet. Support has not been removed yet. It does not have to be an “old” Slackware CD.

          By the time I get around to shuffling through a bunch of old drive it very well could be!
