Hello,
My thanks to everyone who has responded. I probably should have
mentioned this box doesn't have a cd-rom in it and it's not practical to put
one in, install was done via network. I read the tldp hard disk howto and
i've got both drives in the box. My problem is the original howto makes no
reference to lvm, when centos 4.4 installed that's what it used. So i need
to transfer the lvm over along with the data and enlarge partitions to fill
the available space on the new drive. And if possible i need to do this with
native tools.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Is there a rescue disk for CentOS 4.4? The
drives are not similar in size, the new one is about twice as large.
boot CD 1 from the same version CentOS with the single option (boot from
the cdrom, then at the grub prompt, give it `single` as an additional
argument).
