Hi,
I'm using g4u. It seems that it'll do what you need.

Hi, I want to copy the complete disk from a Fedora core 4 system
to another disk. The new disk needs to be bootable.
The disks are different sizes (original 6gig, new 320gig), so dd is out.
In the old days, it was simple, you just make three partitions (boot, swap
and root), copy the contents of boot and root, run grub and you are done.
FC4 uses a logical volume manager. Is there a how to? A web page? a wiki?
I could not find one. :-(
It would be easiest to copy the data over the network after booting the new
system from the rescue or install disk. I could physicaly put the second
drive in the first computer, but that would be less desirable.
I can also tar the entire disk and put the tar file on a dvd.
Are there any problems with doing it the old way (three partitions)
besides fixing /etc/fstab and grub.conf?
Any help or pointers to help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Geoff.
