Hey guys,
So, after using Fedora now for about a year, I'm still getting used to it but I'm using it practically all the time now and instead of having a dual boot with Windows 7, I want to create an image of my Windows 7 installation, format the drive, install a clean version of Fedora 17 and then install VirtualBox and run my Windows installation from there (only need Windows for certain software and don't need a dual boot, only used it a few times in the past year!).
Anyone any ideas or good tutorial for doing so ? I've done a few google searches but there is a lot of conflicting information about how it should be done and figured this was the best place to ask!
Seen some blog posts about using CloneZilla, but other posts about using the 'dd' command from a LiveDVD, but to be honest, I'm not sure of the best way to go . . . . . and none of the articles I found were idiots guides, which I probably need :D
Thanks for any help.
Jim
