Since you're going to need new harddisk, buy one. Install Linux on the new disk , and copy over.

Thanks, but I'd like to point out that bios doesn't detect hardrive on the boot whatsoever, so copying data over cannot happen. Further more Im not sure about current linux support for HFS+ file system. Peter -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
