In a similar vein to OP's question, I am going to buy a new boot disk, because my hda is old enough -- and drives are cheap enough -- that I'd rather replace it before it fails. So I checked out CloneZilla, but it seems to be aimed at institutional use. Even partimage seems to need an intermediary step. Is there any way to directly clone /dev/hda to /dev/sdX, so that I can then boot off of /dev/sdX? - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA ESPN makes baseball players better. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIM4bhS9HxQb37XmcRAnEgAJ9Q0InLDNLoQ3itUUnosl7Xf9V3wQCeJ2d1 pmVBe2+JzN+XwwM+UyZYPXY= =9QD/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
