Good, easy way to clone a hard drive.
dd which is used for converting and copying files, can be used as a powerful and simple image cloning application.
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb
done
if you want to see your progress
then type in another terminal
kill -SIGUSR1 xxxx
were xxxx is the process ID of the running dd process
and the progress will report on the original terminal that you started your cloning operation on.
