I have a 1TB hard drive with 3 partitions (1 for my documents, others for my multimedia and the last one with linux operating system), the case that I want to move the linux operating system to the other disk (SSD) already installed in the machine, but I have no idea how to do it
I already tried with
Acronis True Imagewhich is to do those disk management but I cloned all the literal disk with its partitions (I mean three partitions) of which I only want the partition where linux is located
You can use the dd
would be something like:
dd if=/dev/sdAB of=/dev/sdC
AB being the unit and subunit of your source partition, and C the unit of your target disk.
To know the existing disk units in your system you can use the command lsblk
It is not necessary to use any proprietary software, you can do it without problems with Gparted .
Go to the source disk, select the partition, right click and, in the toolbar, go to Partition > Copy , go to the destination disk and, again in the toolbar, go to Partition > Paste .
Apply the changes and it should be everything.
