Gparted: Copy Greyed Out
- by David
I booted my system to a gparted linux live CD and I have two partitions:
/dev/sda1
/dev/sda2
I want to move both of them to my new physical hard drive (called /dev/sdb). When I right click on /dev/sda1, I can choose copy and then paste it onto /dev/sdb. When I right click on /dev/sda2, copy is greyed out and there is a yellow exclamation point to the left of the disk. I know that the disk works since I can boot my computer from it.
Why won't gparted let me copy /dev/sda2 to my new hard disk? Since the option is greyed out, I don't even get an error message.
Thanks!
