4 IDEs used up. 2 hard disks, one cdrom, one zip drive. I would rather just
add the ftp drive but have no IDE room left. If I clone the drive to a
larger drive, will the system boot or will I have to boot to a redhat CD as
"linux single" and then do something with grub, if so, what to do with
grub? Thanks for your help.
