Hey guys, I'm in the process of setting up a new webserver for a volunteering organization here.
I'm trying to move their standard ubuntu installation over to a new HDD.
If I boot the system up in a live cd and use
dd if=/dev/old of=/dev/new
Is there anything else I have to do? Because I will be copying all the partitions and the MBR, I should not have to update grub or do anything else... correct?
Do I have to worry about aligning the partitions or anything like that?
I'd really appreciate any advice!
