Re: Best way to copy Linux from one drive to another

[mheyes@lincolnfp.com]

I thought it might be bios related. The drive mode and type were set to "auto",
so I set the mode to"LBA". PM then saw the remaining ~1.7G, but had bogus
numbers on the size. I tried to create a file system there, but the only FS type
was "unformatted".

I'm using PM 4.0. Does anyone else have a problem like this, or is it a problem
with my configuration?

That's probably a BIOS/ Windows (depending on where you're running PM)
issue.
