I think
k9copy might be what you want. Look for it in
synaptic ("Add / Remove Programs ... ")

Although these tips are for the
Gentoo distribution, most commands they show there should work on LinuxMint too:

If you want to try any of the programs they mention: replace Gentoo's
emerge command with
apt-get install ... e.g. instead of
emerge vobcopy you'd install the program by typing
apt-get install vobcopy, OK? Or simply use
synaptic and search for the program's name and install it that way.
