Next set of questions.
do I have to change the boot option from UEFI to Legacy in order to boot from the USB?
Do I have to initialize the SSD?
argh.
Bootable USB wasn't running Ghost properly. Kept on crashing.
Tried Clonezilla. Booting worked but it doesn't support a seamless clone to a smaller target.
New options.
Use Gparted to shrink the big partition on my old drive. But that would be a pain as I would have to create all the partitions on the new drive and copy one by one.
Or I can boot to windows,create a recovery usb And try and restore directly to the SSD? Would thath Work?
TIA
