[cobalt-users] (Raq4) Changing hard drives



Hi,

Can anyone tell me, does the raq4 auto-detect the harddrive on boot?

I wan tot make a copy of the existing drive in my raq using an image and put the new harddrive in to work from - putting the original on the shelf as a backup.

Should this work or will I corrupt the os. I do this with windows machines all the time, unfortunately I don't know enough about Linux or the raq to know what to expect.

Rotating through a series of hard drives is an excellent method of making backups that you know work.
