There doesn't seem to be a reliable and easy way to make an
"incremental" backup in particular for my problem. I got a lot of
hints using
vdump
and/or
find -newer
but also a lot of caveats.
Therefore I will follow the advice of Tom and Alan to start all
over again and upgrade my current V3.2 system again to V4
Thanks to everybody

The original question was:
---------------------------
I have a system with Unix V3.2. A long time ago I transfered it to
a spare disk and upgraded this to V4.0. But I didn't use it and was
running the V3.2 further on.
Now I want to change to the new V4 system. What is the easiest way
to make a kind of an "incremental" backup (as I would do in VMS) to
get all the newer/changed stuff from the V3.2 disk to the V4.0
disk?
Situation is:
root_domain#root on / V3
new_root#root on /r5a V4
user_domain#user on /usr V3
new_user#user on /r5d V4
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards
Otto
