Interrupt Cloning?

Thread needs solution

I've started cloning a 160Gb Hard Disk to a 500 GB. However, after 24 hours it's only done 15% of the job. I really need to use my computer. Is it OK to turn off the computer? Will it boot from the old 160Gb Hard Disk OK if I do?

It should be okay to interrupt it. However, there is no 100% guarantee.

If there is a Cancel/Abort option, try that first before resorting to a hard reset or power-off. Make sure to disconnect the 500GB drive before trying to boot the old drive.

Paul,
In most situations, to avoid complications, it is best to perform the clone procedure or a restore procedure when booted from the TI Rescue CD. What method is at issue here?
