But will this image copy? I need the entire operating system, everything
that will allow me to take the copy HD and just replace the working HD and
not go through any kind of special booting procedures.

I have a legacy (RH 7.2) system and need to make an image copy of the

Um, buy a small hard drive (the newest big ones won't be recognized
properly by the older machine's bios), put it on IDE2, shut the apps down,
and copy all of that (*eigh*, except for /dev....)
