[GRASS-user] g.copy Question

   In the Oregon location I have a mapset named 'dem' that contains the 10m
DEM raster map. After I start grass64 from within the PERMANENT mapset I try
to copy that raster DEM from Oregon/dem to Oregon/PERMANENT using
   g.copy rast='dem@dem',elev
but this fails with "WARNING: <dem@dem> not found".

   What have I done incorrectly here?

   I forgot to mention that I had run 'g.mapsets addmapset=dem,...' prior to
trying the copy command. I can copy vector maps from other mapsets to
PERMANENT, but not the raster map. PITA!

No idea. Does the map show up in the output of "g.list rast"?
