Hi,
I was wondering if anybody has any wonderful ideas as to how I should
go about "ghosting" my existing linux system.
Norton Ghost only supports EXT2/3 for linux and I used ReiserFS so
using it is out of the question.
Does anybody have any ideas as to how I could transfer my existing
setup to the new drive?
Old Disk: 8gb /dev/hda
New Disk: 80gb /dev/sda (currently plugged into USB2, to be moved to
/dev/hda)
Bootloader: Grub
Filesystems: ReiserFS
Hopefully there's a simple solution ;) Thanks!
have both drives in, boot with rescue cd, then
cp -a /mnt/hda/* /mnt/hda.new/
?
And along with that...
Once the copy is finished, chroot to /dev/hda.new and run grub-install
I've had to do that quite a few times with no problems
