Dear Paul, just a last short question: suppose I have a hard disk A with 
Linux and I want to clon this disk (A) to a new hard disk B; is it 
possible to boot into single user from A and then execute "dd if=A of=B" ??

Or do I have to get another machine with a hard disk C with Linux and 
from here execute "dd if=A of=B" ???

Really thanks,

alejandro.-
