That in itself shouldn't be a problem. You could just copy the files (using ntfs-3g), use dd or some other method. But your problem will be that Windows won't find itself in the expected place anymore. Off the top of my head, I only know of C:\boot.ini which must be adapted, but I don't even know whether Windows 7 still uses this file. Google shoud help, though: http://www.google.com/search?q=move+windows+7+another+partition Feel free to share the approach that worked for you. :) J. -- Television advertisements are the apothesis of twentieth century culture.
