Knoppix Hacks: Migrate to a New Hard Drive
Overview Not only do hard drives hold the programs and data, but they fill up and run out of free space sooner than one would like.

While there are many different ways to copy files from one hard drive to another, some work better than others when transferring the full / directory. This paper outlines a method to transfer full systems and partitions from one machine to another.
