Hello,
grub-mkrescue is trying to execute cp -dpRl (l for link). If the origin
and destination directories are in different file systems this fails.
We could do a symbolic link (-s), detect if it's in the same device,
etc. but I think that just copying is enough and this optimization could
have other problems (like some utilites doesn't follow symbolic links,
etc.)
Small patch attached.
