The tar file for the foce3 hard disk image is at //tornado/ProjectLibrary/900719_FOCE/FOCE.Software/foce3Image/foce3.tar.gz Install Debian Linux on the new hard disk drive. Follow the paragraph labelled Install Base Linux System. When done, remove the hard disk drive. Jumper it for slave. In the system in the software lab (foce2), install both the original foce2 hard disk and the new one. Boot the system. It should boot as 'foce2'. Confirm you can still talk on the network. If you have problems with networking, you may need to edit /etc/udev/rules.d/z25-persistent-net.rules Make sure you have an entry for //tornado/ProjectLibrary in /etc/fstab. It should look like: //tornado/ProjectLibrary /mnt/ProjectLibrary nfs rw,bg,soft,noauto,nosuid,nodev,exec 0 0 As root, do 'mount /mnt/hdb1' and 'mount /mnt/ProjectLibrary' As root, 'cp /mnt/ProjectLibrary/900719_FOCE/FOCE.Software/foce3Image/foce3.tar.gz /mnt/hdb1' 'cd /mnt/hdb1' 'tar xzvf foce3.tar.gz 2>&1 | tee focetar.out Shut down the system. Remove the new drive and remove the slave jumper.
