Not helpful _now_, but consider making sure you have backups once you start using the new system. Then, next time this happens, forget worrying about transferring from a failing drive and just restore your backup. If this is a desktop system with room for it, consider buying *two* drives and mirroring them. That's not a backup (since errors and mistakes get propagated instantly, and because it's in the same physical location), but makes situations like this rare (at least, if you replace as soon as you start seeing errors instead of waiting for a double failure). -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
