+&gt;<i> Thank you, that sounds good, is a &quot;thumbs up&quot; (my doubts were mainly
+</I>&gt;<i> with the &quot;making executable&quot; stuff and suspecting &quot;windows facies&quot;).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Before going to dd, I will try partitioning my new disk with gparted (or
+</I>&gt;<i> the Mageia ISO)
+</I>
+Try <A HREF="http://www.sysresccd.org/">http://www.sysresccd.org/</A> as andr&#233; suggested - it is my favourite tool
+too. Also the documentation, hints and links on their website are good :)
+
+&gt;<i> - do all the disk layout re-arrangements I can think of
+</I>&gt;<i> and than copy individual file-systems with tar - should be substantially
+</I>&gt;<i> faster since it skips all unused space - for the windows partition that
+</I>&gt;<i> would give
+</I>&gt;<i> cd /media/windows ; tar cf - . | (cd /&lt;new-windows-path&gt;; tar xf -)

+Normally a good idea is to from inside windows first clean off unneeded files,

+Ant the linked dools there to graphically see size of files, and the other to
+clean the system of unneeded files.
+
+Then defrag, and then fill unused space with zeroes for good compression using

+*** BUT In your case with failing drive i sugest not doing any of this ! ***

+
+
+... how did i end up giving support for a Microsoft product !? ;)
+
+( I just installed a Win7 trial just to update main board and SSD fiormware and
+play with eit, and Win7 really is a monster of needed updates, downloads etc
+so i ended up above 30 GB, now it runs within a 17 GB partition )
