2 things:
1. Does your current kernel support Reiser? If so, then you
can put the destination disk in the current disk and copy.
2. Is your whole install (including /boot, /var, etc. in _one_
partition? If so, then tar will work and not screw up links.
If the install is not on 1 partition, then please tell me how
you get it to successfully move links to the new partitions!
