Basically, you just want to make sure that the partitions still match up. Here, you have a single root filesystem plus swap area. If you partition your new drive the same, you can probably leave this alone. If you partition manually, you may have swap on partition 2 so you would need to change "/dev/sda5" to "/dev/sda2". You can get the partition information from the new drive with eg. "fdisk -l /dev/sdb". Note that with 2 drives you will probably have sda and sdb; if you have your new drive connected externally it will probably be sdb but when you move it inside will become sda. > # /etc/fstab: static file system information. > # > # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> > proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 > /dev/sda1 / ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1 > /dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0 > /dev/hda /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
