making a exact copy of a HD

[Jason]

Put the second hdd in your system and partition and format it exactly like the 
first drive then mount it and then do a

cp /dev/hda  /dev/hdb -a

-a = all atributes

Then if you want to boot that drive in another machine you will have to run 
lilo and tell lilo to boot off of that drive if anything changed.
