neato. I've got all the partitions in the image extracted and mounted. I'm impressed.

If I want to dd these old partitions into a new (bigger) partitioned and formatted disk, can I just plunk them at the start of each partition in the new disk and expect the files to be readable or are there absolute inode numbers associated with files and the files won't be recognised in the new disk?

Thanks

Joe
