I haven't seen a clear cut answer to my question about Drive Image. (There
are other solutions that I will be checking out.) Can I safely transfer
the paritions of a 6.4GB to an empty 20GB drive, set up a new partition in
the unused space, and have my installation work fine?
I'm leaning towards manually configuring the 20GB drive, used a boot disk
to mount the drives and tar to trasnfer the files.
Thanks!
