I usually use dd and ssh to clone disks from one machine to another, but that only works when the target is equally big or larger than the source.
Is there any easy way to do it from a 13% filled 60GB disk to a remote disk that's only 16GB?
Obviously dd won't work...
You can use: dd if=/dev/sda1 | gzip > some_file.img.gz This compress the image on the fly.
