moving CentOS to a larger disk

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello,
I've got a CentOS 4.4 box that it's drive is dying. This machine has a lot of customizations done to it, custom configs and the like and i'd rather not have to do a full reinstall or manually copy over settings files. What i'm wondering is is there a way i can set up the new disk, make it bootable, then transfer the entire system over to it? I would then pull out the failing drive set the new one to be master, and go on with things? Recently i've had to do this on a FreeBSD system for pretty much the same reason, all data and settings went over fine and i'd like to have the same success here.
Thanks.
Dave.
