What do you mean by "save the root filesystem"? Do you mean save the partition table? Save everything on the drive? Save the entire drive - contents and partition table?
depending on what you want to do, you'll most likely want to boot off a CD distro (like Knoppix on Ubuntu), then mount both drives & eitehr rsync, cp -pr, tar, or dd the data from one to the other - again, depending on what you want to do.
