I just copied one HDD to another today, using the cp command with
appropriate parameters on most of the directories. If I recall what I
did correctly, I didn't copy /dev/ I just made an empty /dev directory
on the new drive, and let the system fill it on the next boot.
I was of the understanding that, now, /dev/ is dynamically generated
each boot.
