[elbe-devel] [PATCH] hdimg: fixup copying files to loop partition

[John Ogness]

The current implementation uses '*' to copy files to the loop
partition. This has 2 problems:

    1. it will miss hidden files
    2. if the directory is empty, cp returns an error

Fix both of these issues by copying '.' instead of '*'.
