What about partitioning the new disk and marking the partition(s) - if necessary - of
type FD for the kernel to autodetect on next boot? Not that I had the need to
reconstruct in a stressed situation on a production system yet ;-) but I think -
although they're obvious tasks - it would be a good idea to have them in this
step-by-step instruction.
