This may be a little noobish, and it may have been said, but can't you
just install the new drive, partition it identically to the original
drive and then...

dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/dev/hdb1
dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/dev/hdb2

so on and so forth until you've got everything copied? Or event just

dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb

Wouldn't that work?
