#75554 — What's the best and easy way to copy/move my old slow 320 GB SATA HDD's updated Debian bullseye v11.3 to an old fast 115 GB SSD (going to wipe it clean)?

Hello.

What's the best and easy way to copy/move my old slow 320 GB SATA HDD's 
updated Debian bullseye v11.3 to an old fast 115 GB SSD (going to wipe 
it clean)? Yes, SSD is smaller but my Debian's installation only uses 
about 8 GB. I installed Debian use the whole 320 GB drive. I will still 
be using the same 13 yrs. old PC.

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

Boot up the latest version of SytemRescueCD/USB with both drives attached.
Use fdisk -l to determine where the drives are located on the /dev tree.
(example; determine which drive is /dev/sda and which is /dev/sdb)
Partition the new SSD drive with fdisk, run mke2fs to create/
format ext4 filesystem on the partition, then run tune2fs -U <UUID-OF-HDD> 
on the partition/filesystem on the SSD to set the UUID to exactly what you
have on the HDD. Mount both drive partitions/filesystems 
and use rsync to copy the filesystem from the HDD partition/filesystem 
to the SSD partition/filesystem. 
After rsync has completed copying the filesytem, 
chroot into the filesystem on the SSD and run 
the grub-install from the chrooted environment.
Just a basic instruction as I do not have time at the moment to go
into every detail as I am extremely burnt from a long day of work
but could go into detailed instructions on how to do so later if you
wish.

This is partly why I moved to and ever since advocate the use of at least two bootable linux systems on every computer. There's already plenty of great replies to your post here but I'll throw mine in just for entertainment.

"I" would install a new minimal system on the ssd, same distro, OR preferably a new one of my choice. Devuan is a Debian fork, there are many others, some good for old iron, Suse is easy to use and includes an SU file-manager that's the best idea they ever had :-)

I would boot this new system and connect (usb adapter maybe) and mount the source one on the old disk to verify the occupancy. The real occupany is a must-know item. Next I'd shrink the fs to a reasonable nominal size like maybe 9gb. This shrinking bit is actually not essential but I like to keep my act clean.

Next I would create a new partition on the ssd that's big enough to receive the old system (with service-factor reserves i.e. 2x the anticipated need, so maybe 2*9gb i.e,. 18). Then I would 'dd' the old system partition to the new ssd partition created to host it (both must be unmounted when dd runs) then expand the copied target fs to the size of the hosting partition just copied to. Then I'd mount the new and expanded system to edit its /etc/fstab as required, unmount it, and use the booted new maintenance system I'm working from to re-deploy boot code to the same currently used ssd but this time including the migrated copy in the boot menu to arrive at my final objective AND a new maintenance system.

There might be bugs in this condensed guide but it's the basic idea.

It was F 'The Fool' Russell who flooded RonB's site hundreds of thousands 
of times and refused to admit it. Having to suffer the use of Native irc 
clients is too much for F 'The Fool' Russell to deal with. 

Just baloney from him. But F 'The Fool' Russell has left reason behind 
and is merely holding me accountable for the acts of himself. Now that 
RonB grokked how successful F 'The Fool' Russell is at portraying himself 
as the 'injured party' he has figured out this isn't as insane as it seemed.

I booted gparted's ISO to resize my HDD's Debian's drive to 100 GB instead of 320 
GB. And then, I booted Debian bullseye v11.3's netinstaller to do a basic 
installation with its single partition with the same defaults like I did in HDD. I 
didn't install its GUI. Just the basic stuff for quick and easy setups.

I tested both Debian installations, and they booted fine. I booted Clonezilla's ISO 
and copied HDD's Debian to SSD successfully and quickly. I rebooted to SSD, but it 
still booted to HDD. What happened and how to fix it? :(

you have to run update-grub and /grub2-install and verify ssd's /etc/fstab has
the correct values for /

Duplicate uuids. Remove the sata connector from the hdd, and connect it to the
ssd. Boot with just the ssd connected to confirm it works ok. Once that's
working, connect the hdd to the sata cable the ssd was previously connected to,
boot from an iso and erase the hdd. Then, if desired, partition the hdd to use
for bulk, slow storage.

So, there's no way to change their UUIDs so I can have two Debian 
installations?

That number is of course complete non-sense. It includes every page that
has the word "How" in it, every page that has the word "change" in it, etc. 
And besides how in the world does anyone look throut half a million web
pages. If it is not in the first two pages ( about 40 returns) it is
hopeless.  And what does SWQWQ mean?

Translation: "Gregory Hall" is now *fully* powerless to hide his puppet 
usage. 

Wow! How did Gregory Hall get *so* self-centered he thinks everything 
is about his trolling?? For the record, taking effort researching a problem 
is never a waste. Declaring you know all and making an effort to convince 
Michael Snit Glasser that it is true? That is a waste.

True to a point. Just skim the titles and Usually you find the answer
in the first or second page of hits.

I thought showing someone I know where he lives might help the situation. 
It did not. The majority of advocates in this group do programming either 
as recreation or as a part of their job, so I am skeptical Michael Glasser 
Snit thinks of writing macros to be "a black art". It's a never ending 
story, and Peeler is simultaneously unable to stop his trolling remarks, 
while posting with forgeries of Michael Glasser Snit. 

Nobody is being controlled by Michael Glasser Snit.

And what did Snit sock Snot / Snit have to say about this long list of 
"convenient friends" who popped up at just the right moment? Most of 
the time he would try to push others to believe they're long time lurkers 
who just happened to have all the tells of his socks. Makes no sense. 
How is wasting random neuron firings tied to flatlining brain waves in 
any way going to lead to reasoned usenet posting? In Snit sock Snot / 
Snit's case, I, and a whole list of "others", had pointed to things Snit 
sock Snot / Snit said and did, he ignored the evidence. What Snit sock 
Snot / Snit did not deny was people sharing such stories, which is how 
he ended up with his list, as you know. Wow... in Snit sock Snot / Snit's 
'story', that a site has been published is "confirmation" that Theo built 
it now? 

The image of another one of Snit sock Snot / Snit's forged accounts, 
no doubt. At some point Theo will realize his 'friend' is yanking him 
around. Theo has gone the extra mile, essentially hand holding Snit sock 
Snot / Snit on coding practices only for Snit sock Snot / Snit to blindly 
attack him and continue to show that he has no real interest in the subject. 
In all reality, it's too hard for snit.

I don't use Debian. Assuming it's using ext4 file systems, as root
# tune2fs -U newuuid /dev/sd?#
with the correct device specified.

You can either make up a new uuid or use uuidgen to generate one that you then
then use in the tune2fs command.

See "man tune2fs" for details.

If the drive is using a gpt partition table, it' more complicated as there are
both partition uuids and file system uuids. I don't know if there is a way to
alter a partition uuid.

gparted can/does allow it.

Hehehehe, Ant's problem comes back as soon as he powers up after hooking
up drive to change UUIDs  :(

He is going have to boot with a rescuecd or live OS to make the sdb
partition changes and change sdb /etc/fstab

All of which says that the advice to dd the old disk onto the new disk
is pretty useless advice for a newbie. It leads into a rabbit warren.
IF you want to replace an old drive (ie you will be throwing away the
old drive afterwards) then using dd is not too bad. If you want to keep
using it, it is bad advice. Not impossible, but liable to lead to
problems. 
Create new partitions on the new drive. Copy over the data using rsync.
Use the distribution tools on the installation cdrom/usb to change the
/etc/fstab on the new drive to point to the new drive, and then to boot
from the new drive.

I didn't even know Nospam already had a history of not only counterfeiting 
so called evidence, but also having already been caught red handed doing 
it and trying to pass it off as like a 3 dollar bill. 

Obviously, since they can call Nospam out (repeatedly), he's lied; otherwise 
everyone else must be lying be about him, and I don't think Nospam's willing 
to go for mass accusation of himself and demand that's even possible. 

Sheer hot air by a delusional, fabricating, scheming, tag-teaming bozo 
who couldn't tell the truth even if he swore on his mother's grave. 

Nospam's posts are nothing but an inconsequential prattle.

Michael Snit Glasser is trying again to slander clamxAV. 

How much more time does Michael Snit Glasser's extremely dumb ass (a brick 
knows more than Michael Snit Glasser and is useful) need to prove their 
Chris spamming accusation with links? Dropping support for 3d printers is 
needed for progress. 

Chris and Michael Snit Glasser had their failures and their erratum. One 
presented it off as someone else's mistake and didn't do anything too outrageous 
that could not be blamed on someone else. 

I don't agree with that. Ignorance is ignorance and there are tons who 
are fine with it. Too many are even lawyers.
