How can I create an exact image of my harddisk on an external disk?

Attention! Check if these are the correct mountpoints!
-
sudo dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/sda
To see the copy progress do the following:
Get to know the process-id of the running dd command
-
ps -ax
Open a new terminal window and execute the following:
-
sudo kill -USR1 {dd-process-id}
Now you can see the copy progress in the terminal where the dd command is running.
