I’ve got a laptop running Arch (btw), with a 128GB nvme in it. The nvme has two partitions. EFI boot, and a luks encrypted lvm.
I’ve got a 512GB nvme I want to swap in. I think I can clone the device with dd, update the uuids, expand the lvm, and drop in the 512 nvme, but my searching hasn’t given me a clear confirmation of this. Am I correct in my thought process, or am I setting myself up for disaster?
It is lvm2. Thank you for the recommendation! I’ll check it out though I think I’m going to stick to the CLI for this one. I kind of want to do it manually.
I do plan to work from a bootsble USB for all the
ddwork so that nothing is mounted/in use.
