Hi folks:

I am rapidly running out of disk space and want to replace a 2 GB with a 10 
GB disk.  I have read the mini HOWTO on upgrading a hard disk.  The doc 
suggests installing the new disk on the computer which is currently using 
the old disk and using the following comand (/new-disk is where the new 
disk is mounted):

    cp -a /bin /boot /dev /etc /home /lib /lost+found /mnt /root /sbin 
 /tmp /usr /var /new-disk

I need clarification on whether I could mount the old disk on to a remote 
machine with a bigger disk (the one I want to copy the system onto) and do 
the same.

Vasanth
