OK that's 2 votes for Clonezilla, so I'll investigate that.

Thanks for the Clonezilla tip, that got me going in the right direction!

I used Clonezilla to copy the partitions I wanted, then updated /etc/fstab to hide the partitions that were no longer there, and ran grub2-mkconfig. That got me booted... but...

The boot process was stopping at the same point it stops when I upgrade the kernel and forget to install the matching kmod for my Nvidia card. I couldn't figure out why that was happening since my regular desktop was still working correctly. Then I remembered... oh, duh... there's no Nvidia card in the box yet. *facepalm* LOL So, I put in an OLD Nvidia card and was able to get to the desktop.

Now I need to get the HDD installed and the partitions renamed since the SSD now uses the UUID's that the HDD had to begin with.

Thanks again for the Clonezilla tip! I wish Clonezilla was included on the System Rescue CD.
