I've got a 10 GB ext3 partition, a ~512 MB linux-swap partition, and a 45.4 GB NTFS partition. I have GRUB doing my bootloading.

I'm looking to clone it all to a new 160 GB hard drive I got today and then expand my NTFS partition to the top (presumably with GParted). I have Clonezilla - will this work well for getting everything across, including GRUB?

Also to note - I have a 160 GB drive in an enclosure that I can remove it from - it's my backup drive of sorts and I have around 60 GB free on it.

in a word, yes.

edit: you can create a drive image and then restore the image to the new drive or clone the drive directly. the effect is the same, no difference, none whatsoever. :)
