Can I copy file systems in safe mode ?

I've got a machine with 2 disks in it, a C drive and a big NTFS
application disk, now I want to substitute a _bigger_ application
disk. In a normal startup I've got lots of files open on the
applicaton drive.

I've connected the new disk and formatted it, and given it a drive
letter.

Is there anything wrong with booting into safe mode command shell
and doing an X copy ?

Is it posssible to change a drive letter while in safe mode ?

This isn't life or death. I've got other ways of moving the file
system, but this would be the easiest, if it works.

It doesn't work. Ghost, or similar programs, is a much easier path.

Best regards

Bjorn
