Here's the information from the original drive.  The new one is now 
tucked away back in its original packaging awaiting my next attempt.

[root at alexander ~]# fdisk -l /dev/hda

Disk /dev/hda: 30.7 GB, 30750031872 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3738 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *           1          13      104391   83  Linux
/dev/hda2              14        1291    10265535   82  Linux swap
/dev/hda3            1292        3738    19655527+  8e  Linux LVM

(Don't ask why the swap is soooo large, I just noticed that. I'll fix it 
when I move to the new drive.)

Is there anything else you'd like to see?
