I had kept a copy of a really great article posted on another mailing list
for this but now seem to have lost it. I would like to upgrade and move
things like /home and /usr to a new scsi hard disk drive which has much more
room. The old disk is /dev/sda and I am installing a new IBM 18 gig scs

Looks like you can use the "cp" command with the "--archive" option (see "cp"
man page).
What you need to do is, after you place a linux filesystem on the partition
with "mke2fs",
mount that partition under the generic mount-point directory "/mnt":
mount /dev/hd?? /mnt
Then, copy every

I'm trying to add space to my system and all i have is a 170meg HD what I
want to do is move everything from /usr/lib to the new HD and have the new

I am planing to install a new bigger hard disk. I will
keep the old one but I would like to move Debian Linux
to the new disk. Is it safe to use dd? If not, what would
