On another system which must be about 10 years old, I'd like to replace the IDE hard drive with a high capacity drive. High-capacity IDE drives are pretty much non-existent on newegg.com, but I'd like to find one around 500GB. Is moving that system over to the new drive as simple as plugging it in, partitioning, formatting, copying, and rebooting? - Grant
Do not forget to install grub (or lilo) on the new disk. :-)
