I've snooped around and come up with CloneZilla for moving everything to my newer, bigger drive. I basically want to move the whole drive over to a new drive *without* the new drive being active. (Will clone old image to external drive, then swap drives in the T61, then transfer image to new drive.) This site: <a href="http://goinglinux.com/articles/ClonezillaLive.html" target="_blank">http://goinglinux.com/articles/ClonezillaLive.html</a> talks about using CloneZilla. Anybody have better advice?</td>

You using a USB drive or something? <br><br>Clonezilla will easily handle that task - I use it for all of my imaging needs. You might want to use gpartd (sp?) to resize the partition on the new disk afterwards. <br>
