I know I saw in the archives messages regarding duplicating or backing up a complete system to another disk but I was unsuccessful. Here the scoop, I have a disk that is failing, of course its a single disk system with multiple partitions (/ /boot /usr /var and /home) I want to duplicate the whole disk onto another disk. Bringing the machine down to single user mode and doing a dump/restore to a new disk is easy enough, however how to I re-install the boot loader? does anybody have a step by step procedure to do a system recovery from one disk to another? right now there is no CD rom or floppy drive on the system, I can install one if need be but would rather avoid it if possible. TIA, Jeff
