[ale] OT: Copying a complete hard drive

[James P. Kinney III]

I have not tested this yet so I'm asking:

Will

partimage -z0 -o -d save /dev/hda1 - | partimage restore /dev/hdc1 - 

recreate/copy the existing partition on hda1 onto hdc1? I have seen no
documentation that says this works or not. I have a failing hard drive
that needs to be cloned.
