| 12:25.51 | DSki | Hi all. I have a suspect hard drive which means i will need to copy it to a new one. Normally I would buy a second same size drive, but want a larger one with more space. WHat should I use to do it? Cloanzilla, rsync, cp, etc? |
| 12:26.10 | DSki | The drive is for data, it's not an OS drive. |

| 14:36.14 | gregj | dd first and then resize partitions |
| 17:16.51 | yaMatt | they've gone, but I'd just cp the files over, perhaps rsync if it's a lot of data or worried about retaining owners and modes |

| 18:53.12 | vagarwal | dd will be much faster than copying multiple smaller files + dealing with the filesystem |
| 19:01.03 | vagarwal | yaMatt: linux luddites are not doing podcasts anymore |
| 19:04.28 | DSki | Thanks for the advice |
| 19:19.08 | yaMatt | vagarwal, I had heard, I knew Joe was thinking about cutting back, didn't know about Ludites |
| 19:19.13 | yaMatt | I think it's getting renamed though |
