[plug] Moving Running System to new HDD

[Michael Holland]

How full is the existing root partition? More than the 20G in it?

If using a boot CD, use "hdparm -d1 /dev/XXX" to enable DMA.
Otherwise, its safer to remount root as read-only before copying it,
and best to switch to single-user mode (runlevel 1) before doing that.

Use resize2fs etc to resize your partition, either before copying (needs
boot CD?) or after copying (slower).
