Hi all, I have just got the opportunity to swap my Western Digital 20gig 7200rpm (three month old) drive,, and I have chosen a 61.4 gig IBM 7200rpm drive to replace it, (also upgrading the box to 512mb ram,,,,) I have heard many bad things about the WD harddisks, so when a friend needed a new big hard drive for his 233mmx system, I did a deal and now I am rearing to go with the IBM. should make a nice combo,,,, But I don't want to have to reinstall the whole thing again if I can avoid it.... The 20 gig is currently divided into partitions like /tmp /home /var/ /usr etc etc... and running Reiserefs everywhere possible. In windows systems, I used Ghost many times to just mirror the old drives onto the new ones,,,,,, Is there anything at all like that for linux? I hate the idea of the hours I am gonna waste getting it all perfect again on the new drive (the old one, install is 2 months old, got it perfect and it has an uptime of over a month now. (web and mail server)) , so I was hoping there was a shortcut I could make...to save me the reload.... any ideas? any suggestions would be much appreciated. kindest regards Frank
