If there are no partitions on drive 2, you can boot from an emergency system (like tomsrtbt <http://www.toms.net/rb/>) and use dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdX. This way your old drive will be copied sector-by-sector which means that partitions are created automatically. If there are partitions on drive 2, I'd suggest the use of tar; mount every partition on drive 1 and do a tar czvf * /a/partition/on/drive2.tar.gz in the root directory of drive 1.
