+1 for a smooth system migration without the needing of reinstalling "a
byte" :-)
I also had to achieve that task with another linux system (not Debian).
That time I switched to a 100% completely new machine (motherboard, cpu,
ram, hard disk...) and used Clonezilla LiveCD.
After restarting the new cloned system, I only had to tweak GRUB to point
to the right devices (because it used a "/dev/disk/by-id" setup). Plain
easy.
