One last step may be necessary : update the UUIDs in /etc/fstab and
/boot/grub/grub.cfg, as you created new volumes with new UUIDs instead
of cloning them. Or alternatively, change the UUIDs on the new disk with
tune2fs, mkswap... to match the ones on the old disk. Otherwise you'll
be stuck at grub's menu.
