Topic: Complete hda swap

Is GParted suitable for a complete swap of an old 20Gb drive with a new 80Gb drive (unformatted).

I want the compete system configuration to be changed over including ALL settings so it boots as if nothing had happened.

Another option is to copy the system to an existing hdd (80Gb) with Linux native and some files on it, preserve these files (optional), then swap it to hda and it works after reboot (as if nothing had happened (except hdd goes missing). Note the hdd is mounted currently under HOME.

Thanks,

PS I have SUSE 10.2 and no other OS on the PC.
