I've looked at various solutions for cloning - they all assume that the new HDD is installed in the computer. I need to clone via a USB HDD as I'm replacing the HDD in my laptop (160GB instead of 80GB - that's all the BIOS will take!) and so cannot install the new HDD alongside the old! I am also looking at the possibility of dual-booting with Windows 7 (hence the bigger HDD - as my wife is being moved to Win 7 with her work laptop and as usual, I suspect that her IT dept will not do it properly) and thus my second question is this: If I install Win 7 first on a partition of the new HDD would I then be able to restore the clone to a second partition and how would that affect Grub?
