Tárgy: using dd to copy a drive

Well, I am finally going to do it. Ii'm going to delete my windows partition!
However, I need to confirm the steps to take before I procede.

1- dd /hda2 /hda4/<dir> (my linux partition is running out...
2- fdisk (combine hda1&2 into one partition)
3- dd /hda4/<dir> /hda2

Well GOOOOLEEEEE, if I am right this is easier than I thought it would be.
THings always seem to be harder when you talk about them.... if I'm right!
What do I need to do to make it bootable? Just run lilo right away, I
think. What if I wanted to use grub instead?
