Are there any hard links in the system anyplace besides the /etc tree?
The resume partition (if you use one) is set in the initrd, I don't know
what method it uses to define the partition (device name, UUID, label).

I don't use one, Tim.  This machine never sleeps

Next question that I don't recall seeing an answer go by in this madhouse, (the machine is currently busier than a one legged man in an ass-kicking contest, kmail even went away by itself a few minutes ago) when the copying is all done using rsync -avcAX, ( I didn't have enough space free to use dd) I presume that I'll need to do a "grub-install /dev/sde", at least that is the plan. Then fix the /etc/fstab file on the new drive, powerdown, pull the sata0 cable and move the sata5 cable to sata0, and it should then boot from this new drive.

Have I missed anything?

Don't do stuff like this on Friday the 13th.
