I have a Windows machine that also has some linux partitions. lilo is the main boot manager. Can I used dd from my freebsd box to completely copy the whole disk, partition tables and all, to another disk? The disk in the machine is starting to appear to be a little flaky and I have another of the same mechanisms here and would like to just basically clone the whole thing over. I seldom use the machine but when I do need it I need it (tax time, an old website that uses a specific windows tool for updating, etc) Thanks Chad --- Chad Leigh -- Shire.Net LLC Your Web App and Email hosting provider chad at shire.net
