hi
did it several times:
1. prepare rescue disk
2. put new disk into comp and mount it to /mnt
3. Go back to old disk and as root
cd /
find . -xdev | cpio -vdump /mnt
4. remove old disk from the system, reboot with rescue disk
(rescue root=/dev/hdxxx) and fix /etc/fstab, /etc/lilo.c
I just tried doing this, and ran into an interesting problem. I think that it
had to
do with copying /lib over, but when it finished untarring the new system, it
just gave
me a login prompt. I logged in, got the message of the day, told me I had no
mail,
and then gave me the login prompt. whe
I want to copy the whole system to another disk to run on another
computer (after copy it i can take care of configuration). Seems to
be
easier and shorter then downloading about 300 megs.
I was wondering how do i go abou doing this.
If anyone knows the answear or can point me to an apropriate HO
