You are correct, if you update UUIDs in /etc/fstab, a ' update-initramfs -u ' is required. What you can do is change the UUIDs on the new disk so that they are identical to those of the old disk. Use tune2fs for ext2/3/4 partitions and mkswap for swap partition. I did this on my TS-119 a while back.
Forgot to mention in my procedure that I modified the UUIDs with tune2fs to reflect the old state.
Nevertheless the system did not start.Perhaps an important 'detail': the new HDD had 2TB, while the old one had 1TB. What I meant with layout did not include the size, only that sda1 was boot for both, sda2 root and sda6 home.
