Here is the issue, I might be approaching this at the wrong angle. See what you think...
1. 250 GB drive from laptop, partition A is 210GB and partition B is 20 GB. Cannot boot linux from 20 GB Partition that still exists.
2. When booted with Live CD or booted in partition A, cannot access files in my old user space (home) and refuses to copy files from B to A.
3. I need to copy home/Simon/.config from old to new. However I hit the brick wall when trying to do this.
I am assuming I screw the pooch when I forgot those user files? Is there any way to migrate the files or do I need to reboot the old system from partition B?
Thanks guys!
BTW almost forgot, I have this desktop here I can place the SATA drive inside it. So that is another possible tool in the shed I forgot to mention.
