How to move my / partition

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I want to move the / partition on a (very ancient) Fedora-12 desktop
from one SCSI disk to another (/dev/sdb3 to /dev/sda6),
because the second disk is showing some signs of sickness.

Is there any safe way of doing this while the machine is running?
Unfortunately the CD drive does not appear to be working,
and the machine (an Asus-P2B-LS) does not support booting from USB.

I could download and install something like Knoppix,
if it is possible to boot from it with grub?

Any help or suggestions gratefully received.
