But is there a way to stage the new system so all I need to do is move the RAID from the old system to the new system? Or do I need to do anything at all? I'm not sure if the existing system has some special packages which make it able to use those large partitions. It doesn't appear to have 'parted' installed.
what kind of raid is this? hardware, mdraid, what? if hardware raid, then what sort of hardware raid controller, and does that controller support moving volumes between systems?
are both systems totally identical hardware? in that case, I'd simply move ALL the disks, including the system volume.
