Title: How do I duplicate or clone an entire partition? Post by: jackg on February 18, 2016, 10:42:16 PM I know there would be some way of doing this. I only want to use Diskpart and Cmd for cloning files.
I see information about this from Google, but it is unspecific to what I need as microsoft write protects the windows file and so I cannot do a full copy. I don't want to run a windows backup as I have three partitions to backup and that would serve to slow me down as it creates zipped folders first (which takes a long time).

2. Boot Knoppix and use dd 3. Run Windows in a VM on LVM and do snapshots 4. If it has to be inside Windows, take a look at Acronis Trueimage 5. Do a slow initial sync and then use Freefilesync to update Title: Re: How do I duplicate or clone an entire partition? Post by: jackg on February 19, 2016, 04:26:50 PM 1. Boot Clonezilla 2.

I tried running ubuntu from a DVD-R in my laptop but it said that it was unable to load from the drive. I then tried the same thing with my hard drive, but it took too long, I will have to go back and try to load it from tat with a program similar to diskpart. |
