Re: How to move the system to a new hard disk?

Fernando It's best to boot from floppies (to avoid endless loop of the following command), mount your old disk under, say, /mnt, and your new disk under, say, /mnttt. Well then just run the following command: cp -dpR /mnt /mnttt If you want to see which files are copied, add the switch -v. It will take a little long time :) Then, Don't Forget To Re-install Lilo! (maybe after you remove your old disk, and boot from floppy giving the kernel root=somtehing parameter, and then you maybe have to rdev /vmlinuz /dev/hda1 or something). Have fun, Vadik. ++_ Vadik V.
