I'm trying to make a backup of my home folder on a 128G flash drive and it's such a pain :(
At first I cleaned down to 124G my home folder, thinking the little room will help. Nope, after like 6h, cp said no space left. I cleaned some more, 92G, started an rsync thinking it will be faster. Woke up to no space left. I'm thinking maybe the problem was the exfat partition so I'm formatting as ext3 but it's super slow too :(
