[SOLVED] Transfer LL from laptop to desktop w/ win7 sp1 (side-by-side)
#4
Hello!

To do what you suggest will take a good bit of work to pull off, but it is possible. You could defrag the Windows drive, free up the space you'll need on the Windows drive using an LL LiveCD and GPartEd, shrink what's on your lappy's HD to fit inside the space you freed up on the Windows box (if it's larger, that is), install LL on the Windows box, use Clonezilla to copy your current setup to the Windows box, and if something won't boot afterwards, use boot-repair from a LiveCD to fix GRUB.

Sorry for not providing specific step-by-step instructions right now, but if you're interested in going to all that much trouble, ask, and we'll tell you how to pull it off in more detail...
