So I need to write a bash script that copies all files to a specified directory however I need to rename the files to it's absolute path by replacing the // character with ____.

For example if the file zad1.shzad1.sh is in the directory /home/123456//home/123456/ the file needs to be renamed to __home__123456__zad1.sh__home__123456__zad1.sh

Any ideas on how to do this?
