Clone Linux Physical Machine to VirtualBox

This is a quick write up of how I cloned my physical machine to a VirtualBox VM in Linux. I had a machine that I wanted to wipe out and re-structure the drives.

1. Ubuntu (or other flavor) Linux on CD
2. Partimage (easy install)

1. Burn your favorite Linux distribution to CD and boot it.
2. Install PartImage and run /partimage/.
3. Make a copy of your current hard drive using partimage.
4. Reboot and start VirtualBox.
5. Create a new VM using the image you created with partimage.
