<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I'm replacing a failing hard drive on my laptop. The old hard drive is 500 GB and the new one is 750 GB. It has a FAT recovery partition put there by the maker of the laptop, an NTFS partition with Windows, and EXT4 partition with Ubuntu, and another NTFS partition for data. I'm using Acronis TrueImage to clone the old hard drive to the new one. Acronis will automatically resize all partitions proportionally to fit the new space. I don't think Windows cares, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I have to do to get Ubuntu booting again after the cloning. I boot from the Windows boot loader, then chain over to grub which is on the EXT4 partition. Any suggestions as to special steps I need to take?<br>
