Well, my new hard drive arrived, and I’m now fully migrated over to it. I followed Greenfly’s system migration tip followed by a cp -R /dev
.
After coercing Knoppix to re-install Grub (the boot loader) I was all set. I’m currently repartitioning the old boot drive and pressing it into service as a media disk. If it just ends up being a hard drive problem, it will be minimized by the rare use and non-critical nature of that role.
Also, I’ve moved my blog to aragirn.net now. Everything is still accessible through blog.aragirn.net so you won’t need to update your bookmarks, RSS feed readers, etc.. I did have a little bit of a problem with links and redirects not working, but I’ve fixed that. If you run across something that should be working and isn’t, please let me know with a comment in this post.
