Worked perfect for me:
mysql> create table i1(
-> firstname varchar(10),
-> lastname varchar(10));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> create table i2(
-> firstname varchar(10),
-> lastname varchar(10));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> insert into i1 values('aaa','aaa'),('bbb','bbb'),('ccc','ccc');
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 3 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
mysql> insert into i2(firstname, lastname) select firstname, lastname from i1;
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 3 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
mysql> select * from i2;
+-----------+----------+
| firstname | lastname |
+-----------+----------+
| aaa | aaa |
| bbb | bbb |
| ccc | ccc |
+-----------+----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> truncate i2;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> insert into i2 select * from i1;
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 3 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
mysql>
mysql> select * from i2;
+-----------+----------+
| firstname | lastname |
+-----------+----------+
| aaa | aaa |
| bbb | bbb |
| ccc | ccc |
+-----------+----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
