The xcopy should work.  You do need to have the flash volume formatted to 
accept LFNs if the source contains LFNs.  Perhaps, it's just xcopy being 
brain-dead like its cousin, cmd.exe. 
You might try 4os2's copy command which can do everything xcopy does which 
fewer problems.

There's not.

That's up to you. :-)
