Duplicating Hard Disk...

[Ahbaid Gaffoor]

Hi all,

I have a RH box with an ide drive on /dev/hda

I'd like to clone this drive...

Question:

Can I plug in another IDE drive as say /dev/hdb and run the following
command to do the trick?

dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb bs=512 count=1

If not, what's the best way? Assume the person doing this is an end user
in another country (really is)... :)

thanks,

Ahbaid.
