Trying to upgrade a friends notebook HD, so I mounted a new 100GB in an external USB carrier, .. couldn't figure out how to format so I boot Windoze and formatted the first 20GB FAT32.

Knoppix then saw both the original & new HD just fine, but the copy has been doing WEIRD things! Every fee seconds the data transfer 'STALLs', so the total transfer fime for 6.7GB is now over 20 hours.

Anyone ever seen something like this? Recommendations for a solution?

        Thanks!

I would guess the notebook is using USB 1.1. I have experienced the identical problem when attempting to transfer large files (images) via that technology.
