[snip] current# mkdir /mnt/clone current# mount target:/mnt/hdb3 /mnt/clone # let's assume /dev/hdb3 is mounted as /home if /dev/hdb3 is mounted "/", than copy only the important stuff - use /bin /boot /dev /etc /home /lib /opt /root /sbin /usr /var instead of "*" in the tar command [snip] Boy, I must have been unclear! I have 2 different machines. I want hdb4 on one machine cloned to hdb3 on the other machine. The machines are about 20 miles apart (home and work). The suggestions will come in very handy when I need to clone on the same drive. Any help on cloning from one machine's 2nd drive to a different machine's 2nd drive? -- Wanda
