Backing up dual boot operating system.
On my wifes laptop we run dual boot Windows xp/Ubuntu. I am gonna be installing another hardrive on it. We run IBM's Simple Backup in Windows Partition for backup software. I've used it before on my desktop and am aware it just backs up all files and not the O/S. She has the Windows XP disk. My question which I think I know the answer to is will the backup software just copy the files on the Windows Partition and not the Linux one. I figure yes but am just looking for feedback to see if I'm right.
