<!--beginarticle-->
<PRE>At the moment, my hard drive setup is like this...
I'd like to move my present Mandriva 2010.2 system partition (sdb1)to a
different hard drive where my present Mageia system now resides (sda5),
replace the contents of the present Mageia /home (sda7) with the
important contents of the present Mandriva /home (sdb6), thus having it
so I can boot into Mandriva on sda as my backup system. Then, I will do
a clean install of Mageia on sdb1, leaving my original Mandriva /home
intact, thus making Mageia my production system.
I want to use sdb6 for my production /home because it is much larger
than sda7. I suppose I could just switch the two /homes, but that would
leave system and data on separate drives for both, and a hard drive
failure would take out both systems. I prefer having system and data on
the same drive.
Can anybody offer suggestions on how to accomplish this herculean feat
the easiest way possible? Oh, almost forgot - if it helps I do have an
external usb drive big enough to back up the important parts of my
production /home. In fact, that's what I use it for.
