I'm in a bit of a disk space planning bind, and need to repartition *sigh*. I run 95,NT and Linux on the same box. I was wondering about the feasibility of: Doing a giant tar to tape of my whole Win95 partition (it will fit). Doing a giant tar to tape of all of NT. Doing a giant tar to tape of all of linux. Then repartition, reinstall Linux, then untar 95 and NT back onto the same numbered partition (only it will be bigger this time). Then untar my backup on top of my "new" linux install, it ought to just replace everything, then reboot? I figure this way I can avoid 95/NT registry weirdness, and trying to back up open files, etc. etc. from within each OS. Is there a simpler way?
