I've just bought a 40gig IDE hard drive which I want to put as /dev/hdb on a spare box, replacing a 4.3 gig drive there at the moment.
I installed Woody whilst leaving Potato on this box and I've only now realised I did a sloppy job. /dev/hda contains all of Woody except /usr which I put on hdb (hdb8 - 1.2gig) as there was surplus space there. Nothing else on hdb needs to be retained. If possible I'd like to avoid reinstalling Woody onto the new drive (and it's no use waiting for it to crash as it never does). I can find a 3gig primary partition on hda which I could use in whole or part to take /usr. But how to transfer it there? I have partition magic and parted and have been looking at these, but am reluctant to 'have a go' - there seem a number of imponderables. Has anyone on the list had to do this? If so, I shall appreciate any guidance. Regards, John. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
