Hi there

I am still running RH9 and have the need to upgrade my main boot drive
(\boot and \ and \swap all on here), which whilst is ok, is very nearly
full. I need to replace the 20gb drive with a 120gb drive. Under
windoze, I would use ghost. Is there a Linux alternative that I can use,
or is there a simple way ;-) of doing it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Jon
