I wanted to make a backup of Ubuntu. I only have ubuntu on the machine.
I did the following. I got a live usb and booted. Then I used gparted to copy my Ubuntu to another ext4 partition that I have. Nothing more.
Now I booted back to Ubuntu and opened gparted. It shows that both the old and the new partitions are mounted and the mount point is /
What's happening?
Does it relate to UUIDs? (because
blkid
shows that both partitions have the same UUID)How can I maybe disconnect or something, the two Ubuntus from each other? Make them 2 independent OSs. And, would it be a good idea?
Please let me note that Ubuntu is running very slowly
