I may well try Clonzilla. I didn't realise that it did device to device
copying. Of course, I'm aware of dd, I just prefer a GUI tool, being an old
wimp as I am. Redo is more useful perhaps for saving a known good version of
the partition for 'Factory Reset' purposes. That's what we used it for.

The new wallet has no data in it. I need to get the original wallet onto the
SSD.
