I love tools so much.

The wizardry enabled by tools like and is so helpful to move old installations onto updated hardware.

My same original install just moved to its 4th new drive, nine years running.

Is ja nicht wahr. In 11 ist in den "nativen" Einstellungen ein fast vollständiger Ersatz für die alte Datenträgerverwaltung eingeflossen. VHDs erstellen und mounten geht, Laufwerke formatieren, erweitern, schrumpfen. Fehlt nur noch, dass man Volumes auch verschieben kann, wie in

If you don’t like the of a particular distribution, you can use other to do some tasks beforehand. For example, I am worried about messing up my dual-boot setup, so I boot into  rescuezilla.com and prepare my hard drive with .

The and live distros were really helpful yesterday! Replaced the SSD in my mom's computer and cloned the content to the new one. Deleted the old and unused Windows 7 partition and moved and increased the Ubuntu partition. I was expecting some bootloader trouble, but no, everything was working fine afterwards, Ubuntu booted as if nothing happened and now she has a lot of free space☺️

Moved my existing Mint installation to a larger NVMe drive. Turns out 'gparted' running off a Mint Live USB key was the easiest way.

Created new partitions of the sizes I wanted on the target, then used 'copy' and 'paste'. copies the filesystem data, and then resizes the filesystem to fill the partition as applicable.

It does leave you with identical UUIDs on the source and destination, so you have to fix that (e.g remove the old drive).

I was battling today with errors on a USB stick, until I realised that Gnome Disks does a far better job in repairs than GParted. Go figure.
