I still have Gutsy Gibbon running on one machine and have never had a...
problem with it. Another machine runs Hardy but the hard disk is on it's
last legs. I'm planning on trying out Clonezilla or something else (any
other suggestions for this job?) to get that installation onto a healthy
drive.
Welcome to the list Curt.
Install the new drive on the system, boot from a liveCD, ensure both
drives are not mounted& use gparted copy. That will copy the data from
the old drive to the new drive bit-for-bit. You can then test by
disconnecting the old drive& booting with the new drive.
Alternate method is to use dd:

[dd + gparted + UUID]
I'm about ready to give gparted a try.
