Now and then I do: rsync -av --delete --exclude="/lost+found/" --exclude="/proc/**" --exclude="/mnt/hdb5/" / /mnt/hdb5/ /mnt/hdb5/etc/fstab must be changed to mount /dev/hdb5 as /. Since this is a backup/test system, I put everything in one partition. Grub (or lilo) must have an entry to boot this backup system: title RH 2.4.20 root (hd0,1) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20 root=/dev/hda1 title RH Backup root (hd1,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20 root=/dev/hdb5 All my testing is done in this backup.
