I have found that using tools like gparted to copy partitions tends to work better. There is a live CD and a live USB image that lets you clone the partitions while they are not mounted.Now, the problem I have is the cloned drive was not successful with thedd command. It failed to create the swap partition and it failed to faithfullycreate the / partition.So it looks like I will have to discover a way to copy clone the partition of/. How can I do this safely? cp -a? What I do not want to do is to copy over from /, the devices for example so what is the best method for copying over the partitions esp. that of / ?I think /boot is not a problem with cp -a but I have a feeling / is significant.Please advise? Thanks! Dan
