Replacing a HD

I am planning to replace my 30 gig HD with a bigger drive. At the moment
this is the way hda is setup:
~ ---Starting--- ----Ending---- Start Number of
~ # Flags Head Sect Cyl ID Head Sect Cyl Sector Sectors
- -- ----- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----------- -----------
~ 1 0x00 1 1 0 0x82 14 63 416 63 394002
~ 2 0x00 0 1 417 0x83 14 63 1023 394065 31444875
~ 3 0x80 14 63 1023 0x83 14 63 1023 31838940 25597215
~ 4 0x00 14 63 1023 0x05 14 63 1023 57436155 1163295
~ 5 0x00 14 63 1023 0x82 14 63 1023 63 1163232
My system boots from hda3 using grub. hda1 and hda5 are swap partitions.
Whats the best way to get an exact copy of my two Linux systems onto the
new drive? I am not so concerned with the two swap partitions, as I can
create merge them into one on the new HD later.
Cheers
Frank
