I'm trying to clone the HD from my Golden Tee so I can transfer it to a compact flash card instead. I tried using CHDMAN, but it doesn't seem to be working correctly. It will tell me its creating an image, but when its complete the file is only 1k in size. Does anyone have any other opensource cloning utilities they use that may be better than CHDMAN?

Clonezilla is pretty great as is Mclone which can be found on the TrinityRescueKit (free)

Both are Linux boot discs but are very easy to use. I have used them to copy hundreds of hard drives
