Hello,
I'm new to Unix
, but very comfortable with computers, we have a old ScoUnix system at work and we have no IT person, although we have limited basic knowledge of commands we are by far not experts. We have called around to have someone work on this but to date have not found anyone.
The hard drive we have now is about 10 years old and we would like to copy everything, a complete image, over to a new(used) drive of the same size 1.79 gig.
I have seen the DD command and wonder if this would be a correct one to use to make a copy.
Time for copy is not an issue I have read DD is slow but that is no problem.
Can someone walk me thru the commands to make a disk copy using DD or another command. I have looked at some of the examples on this forum, but need it spelled out a little better.
Please understand that I am a complete novice to Unix, so make it as simple as possible
Thank You,
Bill
