i'm looking to move my existing gentoo install from a 3 gig hd to an 80 gig
hd.

i'm thinking i'll format the 80 gig (/dev/hdb) as 64 meg /boot (/dev/hdb1)
2 gig swap (/dev/hdb2)
and the rest for / (/dev/hdb3)

then i'll mount the /dev/hdb3 in /mnt/new and /dev/hdb1 as /mnt/new/boot

and then cp -a ? all the top level directories except /dev and /proc to
/mnt/new/ ?

then i'll remove the 3 gig and everything should be sweet.

i hope... any comments?
