There is g4l - a Ghost clone. There is also the gpated boot-able
disk that lets you use parted to create partitions on the new drive,
and copy over the partitions from the old drive. It will also resize
most file system types. When coping to a larger partition, you can
resize and move at the same time. Because it understands file
systems, it only hast to copy over the used blocks, saving time.
