rsync clone - ubuntu failure

[dave selby]

Thank you everyone :)

Setup mu UUID by referencing https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingUUID
re-booted & I am now writting this with my OS on my new HDD - how good
is that :):):)

OK Question ...

how reliable is re-sizing partitions with qtparted - ie could you
clone from a larger to a smaller partition by re-sizing the larger to
a smaller size, then directly dd'ing it or using partimage ?

Is this a better way than rsyncing ?

What do you guys think ?

Cheers once again

Dave
