I assume the laptop runs Linux.If so then you’d use “dd” to clone the disk
drive. “dd” is installed on every Linux system I’ve ever seem. So you already
have it. This assumes you are copying it to an identical drive.
The trouble is that you can not have booted from the drive you are

Do not think cloning is a good idea since it is an exact

that install was only 3 months old anyway. running the latest 2.8 iso.
I am using a custom mint iso loaded with qt5 and linuxcnc 2.8 it is

Hi guys just getting back with a report of what I did to try clone my hard
drive.
I tried to clone it in linuxcnc first as described and failed. then tried
clone zilla, then tried a few other programs to decrease the size.
using G parted I reduced the size of the disc down to 40 gb and then
All the advice to use "dd" is OK. But it will spend hours copying many
gigabytes of blank areas of the disk.I bet there is only a few
megabytes of data you really need.
The simple way is to make a bootable disk or SD card (or better an SSD)
from scratch. Just the same way everyone

OK, step one is use fdisk to see the partition arrangement
on the old drive.

Look up R-Drive image. It works with Windows and will clone just about
anything. Linux drives are no big deal.
Its not free, but its not expensive either.
I have two USB to IDE/Sata adapters that I used to clone drives. Or you
can use one adapter and save the image from one drive and

I use Macrium Reflect on Windows. It backups everything, windows, Linux, boot

Or download the System Rescue CD, boot it, launch the GUI (how to do that is on

size or larger because it can't simultaneously clone

I posed this same request to the group a couple weeks back. I was going to
wait until I was successful with two clones before I reported my results,
but here is what I tried and what worked. All my problems with cloning
arose from making a bootable HD. dd failed to make a bootable drive for me
I use Clonezilla for this.
Great-great program!
