I recently asked about copying a running system to a new drive. As a postscript, I'm wondering if it would have been preferable to run the machine under a Live OS, and simply copy the root partition to the new drive? Eg while running under the LiveOS, # mkdir /mnt/old /mnt/new # mount /dev/sda7 /mnt/old # mount /dev/sdb6 /mnt/new # cp -avx /mnt/old /mnt/new or # rsync -ax --progress /mnt/old /mnt/new -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin
