I have Debian server with multiple HDDs.
/, /home/, swap and others are LVM Logical Volumes.
/boot is on a small partition at the beginning of one of the physical HDDs.
fstab uses UUID for /boot and /dev/mapper/ for the rest.
I want to move the root / and /boot partition to my new SSD.
My idea is to create the same small partition on the SSD and use dd to copy it over. Then I will mount the new boot partition (live distro probably necessary) and run grub-install? Also, update UUID of the new /boot.
The rest of the SSD will be LVM partition. If I add it to the same VG I can migrate it by forcing PV to the LV AFAIK.
Will it work? Is there a better way?
Edit: I am using BIOS boot.
