Upgrading to a new Hard Drive

[Ansar Mohammed]

OK, this is pretty interesting. 
You have a 20MB drive and you are "upgrading" to a "new" 120MB drive?

Subject: [TLUG]: Upgrading to a new Hard Drive


I have an old 20MB hard drive running RedHat with 2 partitions.  I'd like to
move the entire drive and its contents to a new 120MB drive without having
to re-install all of my apps, databases, files, etc.

Can I use 'dd' for this - even if the drive parameters are not the same???  

Any suggestions???
