Clone server with rsync

boot server from cd

--Backup existing boot directory to temp if exist
#mv /boot /boot_tmp
#mkdir /boot
#mount /dev/sda1 /boot

--Install the boot loader to /dev/sda1 mounted as /boot
--Umount /dev/sda1 and format sda1 if grup exist before doing grup-install
#grub-install --root-directory=/ /dev/sda

--Change device map during boot from "/dev/sda" to "/dev/hda"
#vim /boot/grub/device.map

--Check the grup exist
#ls /boot
grub    lost+found


--Set new server as rsync server
--Edit rsync new server configuration file
#vim /etc/defaul/rsync
ubah ke RSYNC_ENABLE=true

# vim /etc/rsyncd.conf
edit :

--Issue command to rsync from old server

--Change new HWaddr at new server
#vim /mnt/sda2/etc/iftab

--Change new ip address at new server
#vi /mnt/sda2/etc/network/interfaces


--check mount point at new server
# vi /mnt/sda2/etc/fstab
reboot.

Whould work now
