Here's my setup: I have an AMD64 with Windows Vista installed on an SATA drive, and Kubuntu on an IDE. Both drives are 150Gb
Here's what I would like to do, I want to get rid of Windows (yay!) and move my linux installation (intact) to the Sata drive, which will first need to be reformatted.
I can get rid of Windows easy enough and format the drive. But what is the best method for moving my Linux installation to the other drive. Is this even possible without causing a ton of headaches? Can I just disk image it and move it? I'd really rather not reinstall because I've spent quite a bit of time in Kubuntu and finally got everything just the way I want it.
I'm pretty fluent with the command line and am not entirely new to GNU/Linux.
Any advice would be extremely helpfull. Thanks.
Edit: PS: I am not dual booting, If I want to get into Windows, I must change the BIOS to boot off the other HDD. So I would think this might make my task a bit easier.
