Hi everyone.
I hae a problem. I just bought a new pc with a larger drive. (1TB). I have an older 320 GB drive with dual booted Ubuntu 11.04 and win 7. Now i wanted to clone it to my new hard disk instead of losing all my data and settings and all that.
I saw a post 6 years old that suggested dd, but i am looking into using 'clonezilla'. Any opinion whether clonezilla can handle dual boot?
I am trying to install Ubuntu 12.04.1 for the first time on my laptop.
I just moved and decided to keep my old hard drive with Precise installed on the first partition (now sda1) and my /home on sda3 (swap in the middle) but to leave my old computer and put my hard drive into a new one.
Post title explains it all, here is more info.
I have a server with 3 hard disks, here is the layout:
hard disk 1: /boot and swap partition (DEAD)
hard disk 2: raid1 member
hard disk 3: raid1 member

Hello all..:D
I have a good Redhat 9 install on my hard drive.
But I need to use this install on another computer.
So I formatted an USB flash drive as ext3, installed grub in it and copied my existing / filesystem on the hard drive to the USB flash drive.
For testing the install, I disabled my hard drive, floppy drive and CDROM drive in the BIOS setup.

I've had a nightmare of a time installing Arch with UEFI (Z77e-itx). At first I couldn't get Arch to boot after a few installs, then I managed to get a working system but my windows hard drive somehow managed to lose its boot-loader.
I was running Ubuntu with an uptime for some two weeks or so. After downloading Black Mesa Source today, I attempted to boot into Windows 7 to install the recently released mod but I got an error message before Grub2 loaded. The message read, BOOTMGR is missing. I then booted my Ubuntu Live disc and Googled the error message.
I'm new to Ubuntu. I've installed Ubuntu 12.04 on a USB flash drive. It boots fine
from the USB stick. But if I remove it and boot again, Window 7 should boot. Well it doesn't. Seems like the hard disk is not there any more. Must have done something wrong while installing Ubuntu. My laptop is an Acer Aspire 1410 without a DVD reader.
The USB flash drive is a 64G Sandisk Cruzer.
