Create a new partition

mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda?
mount /dev/sda? /mnt
mkdir /mnt/{bin,dev,home,lib,mnt,proc,sys,usr}
mkdir /mnt/{boot,etc,media,opt,root,sbin,srv,tmp,var}

for d in bin home lib usr boot etc opt root sbin srv var; do
   cp -ap /$d/* /mnt/$d
done

Do not copy /proc, /sys, /dev, /run, /tmp
-------

If you can get another system up, this would be easier:

mkdir /mnt/{old,new}
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/old
mount /dev/sda? /mnt/new

cp -ap /mnt/old/* /mnt/new
