I've done it using clonezilla ...bootable iso


everything gone fine.....   but one question remaining about HDD size ( 
how to utilize remaining space in new HDD)  ..

following is the output of *fdisk -l *command

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1          26      204800   83  Linux
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.

/dev/dm-1p1               1         642     5156833+  83  Linux

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

question is How do I use remaining disk space  /dev/dm-0   (114.5gb )  
and /dem/dm-1 (5gb)

how do I create one single partition using (/dev/dm-0 and dm-1 ) ???
