A bit off topic; but, I've got a Windoze box with a failing hard
drive;
and an FC3 box (which is working a whole lot better).
What's the recommended process to create an exact duplicate (boot sector
and all) of a hard drive? Is it really as simple as:
cat /dev/hda > /dev/hdb
??? Does the new drive need to be partitioned first? Or is there some
other way to clone drives?
Thanks in advance!
