Put the script variables in quotes, and you'll get much better results. I've gotten into the habit of putting everything even numeric constants in quotes (/bin/sh, forgiveness in advance):

				echo "Error: thingie failed to copy (err=$?)"
				exit $?
			fi

If you want to compare strings, use !=, if you want to compare numbers use -ne. In this case, you should probably use [ $? -ne 0 ]. If you really want to use strings, use [ "$?" != "0" ].
