Copying my existing Linux system to a USB HD
This is a discussion about Copying my existing Linux system to a USB HD in the Everything Linux category; I'm trying to copy my operating system over to a USB hard drive (not a flash drive, but rather a hard drive) and then make it bootable on a laptop that has shown it can at least boot USB memory sticks and possibly also a USB hard drive.

From what I understand you need to use GRUB to make the drive bootable... how would you do that?
Thanks!
