best way to clone a dual-OS laptop onto an external HDD
by khunphet from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5NXZG)
Hi Folks! I'm in need of some guidance again. :confused: I'm thinking of cloning my dual-OS (XenialPup/WIN XP) HP Mini laptop over to an 2TB external HDD as a safety way to protect my laptop and data. I've never cloned anything before as I thought it might be a real hassle - especially retrieving just one or two special files. I often use my HDD for making simple backups of various drives, but the thought of having the WHOLE MACHINE safely stored separately sounds like a good thing to do - maybe even on a regular basis. I'd greatly welcome suggestions on how to proceed for this new project. :scratch:
