The last 2 lines say that /dev/sdb5 is mounted to this Old Hard Drive
somehow. I did not do this. /etc/fsack did not do this. So not sure what
Yes you did. See your opening mail of the thread titled 'dd and cp -a'
in which you say that you mounted it to /mnt, but didn't mention how.
I am assuming you made it permanent by adding it to fstab. And if you
did this, dd'ing the partition would take this setting over to the new
drive.
Guys I am getting a information overload. My question is simple now.
If I do it right is it possible to use dd to make a copy of this F7 to
another Hard Drive?
Also you NEVER mount a partition that your dd transfering too. It
finds it fine.
