[GLUG-chat] Installing New HDD


Greetingz,

I've just gotten myself a new HDD (25Gb), I already have a 40Gb HDD
 installed, I'm currently using MDK 10.0.

I would like to have (/, /boot, swap) on the new HDD and (/home) to stay on
the old HDD.

I would prefer not to reinstall, and I obviously don't wanna loose my (/home
 - 27Gb - 97% full).

Which is the best way to install a new HDD:
 1. Move partitions to the new HDD and resize partitions on current HDD
 2. Reinstall Linux on New HDD and resize partitions on old HDD

Secondly how would you move/resize partitions.
