The title pretty much speaks for itself… I have a linux install that I’ve spent a considerable time configuring, which is unfortunately installed on a drive that’s starting to show signs of dying.
My question is: how, if there is a way, can I migrate said linux install over to a different drive, while preserving all the configurations and such.
EDIT: Thank you to everyone who commented! I made the transfer, using dd and it went mostly smoothly, even if it did take a while.
Clonezilla Is what I normally use for cloning drives, including my boot drive. You flash it to a USB drive then.
Maybe look up a Youtube guide first but I’ve never had issues with it.
Yeah i used this when i got an nvme and migrated from spinning disk on my machine. I dont remember the exact process, but it was fairly straightforward as i recall
Clonezilla is amazing, you ‘just’ need a disposable thumb drive (it gets wiped) and an external hard drive (to save the temporary clone file).
