One final question is whether the dump/restore process is the best
approach in this instance? I have read about using dd but am not
entirely sure whether this would do what I need?
No, you should use dump/restore and if it is the root partition you
will need to edit fstab afterwards.
Can I just double check that the editing of fstab is only applicable
if my device names change?
Correct. If the device will end up on the same controller and logical
position (master, slave, whatever) then you do not need to edit it.
However, if you plan to reboot the machine and just boot off the new
disk without changing its position first, then edit fstab. You can
always edit it back again before moving the hardware around.
