Re: partition Magic to Linux



Hello,
You downloaded partition magic for Linux just to clone a partition?
That could have been done easily with dd: dd if=/dev/hd?? of=/tmp/image.hd??
This will create you an exact copy of the partition and place it in /tmp.
As for the size of your newly created image, it should take 600 MB in addition
to a few bytes which contain filesystem dependent information (Permissions...)


	Regards, Yotam Rubin
