Cloning a hard drive using the Ubuntu live CD #4
In this video I show you how to easily clone a hard drive. to do this you’ll need a live ubuntu CD and a second hard drive. This can be used to clone any hard drive with any OS installed in it. The command is: sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 where sda is the hd you are copying from and sdb is the hd you’re copying to. so make sure you change those according to your setup. **You do this while booted into an Ubuntu live cd** **make sure to backup all important data before doing this as a precaution in case something goes wrong.**

I would like to build an Integrated Web Server that supports uploading and downloading files, but how?
There is a great program called “Easy File Sharing Web Server” (http://www.file-sharing.com) that does exactly what I want to do. However, it costs money that I do not want to put down at this point.
I did some research and found I can create an Integrated Web Server with Apache (http://www.appservnetwork.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=46). I’ve configured all my ports and got a basic webpage to come up.
Now I need to build a webpage that allows:
- Users to log in
- Users to upload and download files
I know very basic HTML, so I would need to find a free HTML editor that could assist me with this. Particularly building an interface to upload and download files. (I don’t even know where to start with this.)
Does anyone have any recommendations? Does anyone know if there is a Live CD (linux or otherwise) that can provide this sort of setup?
Any help would be appreciated. I know what I’m asking for is complex.

How to Make An Ubuntu Live CD
*Ubuntu Can Be A Very Confusing OS for beginners, Please Do Not Hesitate To Ask For My Help* quesomanrulz.com – Hey Everyone, Quesomanrulz here. This is a video I made showing how to create an Ubuntu Live CD. For those who don’t know a Live CD it is a CD that you put in at the startup of your computer (not at the start of windows, right after you push the power button). This CD will then boot you into Ubuntu insted of Windows without making any permanent changes to your computer (meaning after you turn the computer off and pop out the disk the computer will be exactly the same). I actually have Ubuntu dual-booting on my system because I like it so much. Also, for those who don’t know what Ubuntu is It is a Linux distribution (probably the most popular) and is open source. The newest version which you will be downloading off of Ubuntu.com is Version 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex). Thanks for watching everyone and remember: Subscribe!!!
