How to move Ubuntu to an SSD
- by Bart van Heukelom
My current situation is:
One hard disk
Dual boot Ubuntu 11.04 and Windows 7. Partitions:
100MB Windows System thingy
144GB Main Windows
160GB Ubuntu
4GB Swap
12GB System Restore stuff
Now I want to install an 80GB SSD and move Ubuntu to it. AFAIK I need to:
Shrink the 160GB Ubuntu partition to 80GB
Copy it over to the SSD
Change fstab to mount the SSD as /
How do I do the second? And what do I need to do about Grub?
