In general, no. There is a master partition table which occupies the
first sector of the device and which could therefore be copied. However,
this master partition table may link to other "extended" partition tables
which can be anywhere on the drive.
I have not tested this, but I assume
Hi all,
Is there an easy way to copy the partition information from one disk to
another disk that is exactly the same size? I'm guessing a dd on the right
device might do this but the exact command would be appreciated.
My goal is to not have to manually fdisk multiple disks
