Hello kind people. The story is, that I want to install FreeBSD on my computer, but unfortunately i don't have spare primary partition (only logical one), and as freBSD documentation says, I can only install it on primary partition, so I'm thinking to move my current Debian installatin from primary partiion to logical one.
here is my fdisk -l /dev/sda1 * 1 2610 20964793+ 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/sda2 2611 3656 8401995 83 Linux /dev/sda3 3657 3899 1951897+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda4 3900 38913 281249924+ 5 Extended /dev/sda5 3900 4872 7815591 83 Linux /dev/sda6 4873 38913 273434301 83 Linux Debian is on dev/sda2, i'm moving it to /dev/sda5 After some research and thinking(!), my plan is to do following steps: 1. mount /dev/sda5 /mnt 2. cp -ax /* /mnt 3. modify /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst 4. modify /mnt/etc/fstab So, am I missing something? Will these four steps be enough? My current Debian install is approx 2 years old, and I don't want to screw it up. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance!!
