This is the first time I have attempted to do this, so I would like some
advice on this matter. I wish to replace my current harddrive (NTFS) with a
larger one (also NTFS), while still keeping all of the programs, and data
from my previous harddrives. There probably isn't any way to get around
repartitioning the new harddrive if I want to maintain both Windows XP and
Redhat 9, but that I know how to do. I want to know if there is a way to
keep all of my data, programs and preferences intact for both Windows XP and
Redhat 9 when installing the new hard drive.
