if your source disk is on /dev/hda,
and your destination disk is on /dev/hdc,
and given that the size of hdc >= hda,
plus /dev/hdc is not mounted,
then using dd, do:
1) /sbin/init 1
2) /bin/dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdc
i've tried this successfully on scsi disks like:
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb
or copying iso images from cdrom to file:
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/root/file.iso
