Re: copying partitions/moving root partition
hmm... I didn't see it in dselect.. is it a Linux program?
I think I'll want to enlarge some of my partitons too.. I think the main
thing is writing LILO to the new drive so that it'll boot as /dev/hdaX,
allowing me to move it from /dev/hdd to /dev/hda...
