Is that going to work? Grub first stage relies on the physical
position on the disk to find stage 1.5. Is the physical position
going to be the same on the new disk? I didn't think gparted
maintained the physical location when coping file system it
understands. I know I have run into problem before - grub-install
works better for me.
