I'd be interested in this as well.
I just recently tried cloning a filesystem using cp and it worked
except I was unable to su - to root. I could login to root directly,
login under my username correctly but su - failed with something along
the lines of:
su: Authentication Failure
I tried setting umask 0000 rsync and others but something was screwing
things up, neither fs was in use (booted from live cd) but were
mounted.
dump / restore worked perfectly.

<erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to
ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my
apartment it is.
