I'd boot with a CD (Debian live is perfect) and: <br>
rsync -xaHDC --super /my/mounted/partition root@remotebox:/my/new/<u></u>partition<br>
or<br>
tar jcf - /my/mounted/partition|<br>
ssh root@remotebox 'cd /my/new/partition;tar jxf -' <br>
YMMV...<br>

After reading and watching several youtube tutorials about clonezilla,<br>
remastersys, relinux, monodorescue, maketecheasier, live-magic,<br>
linux-live, revisor, instalinux, and several more, I am thoroughly<br>
confused. The best tutorial I've seen so far was this one:<br>
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=490n_VoldUg" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?<u></u>v=490n_VoldUg</a> -- however, it shows how to do<br>
a complete system backup and restore and does not explain how to clone a<br>
single partition from one system and install that partition on a different<br>
system in a dual-boot arrangement. <br>
I have Kubuntu Linux installed on an IBM Thinkpad and I would like to<br>
install that Linux partition on my Lenovo Q150 net-top on which I have<br>
shrunk the windows-7 partition to half of the 250-gig HD and created<br>
100-gig of free space on the rest of that HD so as to have both available<br>
in a dual-boot arrangement. Do I need to install Kubuntu on the Lenovo<br>
first? Or what is the best procedure to achieve the desired dual-boot? <br>
