Question Answered By: Adah Miller   on Jan 04

Yes, boot with a LiveCD and use "dd" or "dd_rescue" to copy the IDE drive
image to the new SATA drive.

if old ide drive is /dev/hdc and new SATA is /dev/sdb then:

dd if=/dev/hdc of=/dev/sdb

Note: neither drive should be mounted.

"dd_rescue" will check for bad sectors and adj accordingly.

see: dd --help or rescue_dd --help
