Any suggestions on how I can mirror (duplicate onto an identical drive) my fancy 3 distribution and 8 partition GNU/Linux system?
Would "dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb" work? If so, do I have to run it from a boot floppy so that no partitions are mounted? Also, it's not exactly what I'm looking for, but I found this interesting: http://www.partimage.org/ "Partition Image is a Linux/UNIX utility which saves partitions in many formats (see below) to an image file. The image file can be compressed in the GZIP/BZIP2 formats to save disk space, and split into multiple files to be copied on removable floppies (ZIP for example), .... The partition can be saved across the network since version 0.6.0."
