I wish to move my root partition from hda1 to hdb2. I figured the easiest way
to do this is to remount the root partition as read-only and copy the files.
But when I issue "mount -t e2fs -o remount,ro /dev/hda1 /" I get an error
specifying that it's in use, and if I boot as "linux single" and try the same
thing it ignores me completely. (Not even an error message; it just does
nothing.) I thought about kludging lilo so it drops me into a console, but I
don't want to do something as silly as this unless I have to.

Thanks for your help in advance.
