Re: Copying a whole PC

[Mike G]

Hi, 
        I'd try two similar approches:
boot with a rescue disc with network support, and then mount the blank 
partitions, and the nfs partitions and cp -Rf all files. If it gets hard to do 
it with floppys, you could install the minimal system, and then copy the hole 
thing via network too. 
NOTE: there probably are far better solutions than this, but this is what I'd do
