Copy One Hard Drive To Another Hard Drive(Backup)?
Hi,
I was running Win 8 until the release of 12.3. I am happy with 12.3 and will continue to use it.
My question now is how would I copy a 1TB HDD to another 1TB HDD for purposes of backup of data?
I was hoping there was a program somewhere for 12.3 that would do the above using a convenient GUI, but I can't find one. (I would prefer a program with a GUI - not Terminal commands or BootCD)
probably best do from terminal : ~ maybe use "dd' : something like : dd if=/dev/[source-drive] of=/dev/[target-drive] .............. or . . . rsync is really good . . . something like : _______________________ mount -t ext4 /dev/[target-drive] /mnt cd rsync -avr --delete --delete-after --exclude=/dev/shm --exclude=/media --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/proc --exclude=/run --exclude=subdomain --exclude=/sys --exclude=/tmp --exclude=/var/lib/ntp --exclude=/var/run --exclude=/var/tmp / /mnt cd umount /mnt ______________ best regards .................... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
