I'll give it a try. Apparently, I can do it either way. Thanks! Christopher Reimer On Fri, 8 Sep 2000, zentara wrote:

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.
I'm trying to tell you that
cd / find . -xdev | cpio -pm /mnt/newroot
works flawlessly and faster than tar. Don't forget the tiny . after find.
