    [snip]

    current# mkdir /mnt/clone
    current# mount target:/mnt/hdb3 /mnt/clone

    # let's assume /dev/hdb3 is mounted as /home
            if /dev/hdb3 is mounted "/", than copy only the important stuff
            - use /bin /boot /dev /etc /home /lib /opt /root /sbin /usr /var
            instead of "*" in the tar command

    [snip]

    Boy, I must have been unclear!

    I have 2 different machines. I want hdb4 on one machine
    cloned to hdb3 on the other machine. The machines are
    about 20 miles apart (home and work).

    The suggestions will come in very handy when I need to
    clone on the same drive.

    Any help on cloning from one machine's 2nd drive to
    a different machine's 2nd drive?
