I used ssd from workstation to server. I created partitions with fdisk and then I usually push all in with dd from the old disk. For the grub you can install it like a normal disk. If you want you can install a new system and then copy the home directory. The only directory that you can put on a normal disk is the portage's temp compiling dir. I saw on the WWW that someone are still working to a new filesystem that can be better to use with the ssd but I never test it. Good work.....
