Dear Mr. Christopher,
Your Solution appears fine as a re-installation aid. But How do I do a
DiskCopy? In Windows, I set up a secondary master, format it, and use Diskcopy
c: d: /e/c/q/h/r/y from command prompt. The resulting disk when installed in
the new system does not boot, so I set the bootable partition from Fdisk and
the system is fully replicated. All program files & settings work. Is there
any such DISKDUMP facility from hda to hdb in LINUX?
