[nfbcs] access hard drive

[Kelly Prescott]

use a linux rescue disk and you can do it with that.
you can also copy and resize partitions with it.
so you could take all data from one partition and put it on the new drive
and resize the new partition.


2 choices are:
grml http://www.grml.org and system rescue cd
http://www.sysrescd.org
the grml is probably better as if you have a hardware synthesizer it will
most likely be able to speak from boot.

the best thing about these solutions is they are free!

hi,

a friend wants to know if there are programs that will recreate the mbr
master boot record and fat file allocation table so files can be copied from
a hard drive that has not been reformatted yet.
