Hi people.
I'm about to purchase a new workstation computer because my current
workstation is too slow. The new computer comes with Windows 10
installed on it. I rarely use Windows, but occasionally it comes in
handy to troubleshoot something, so I'd like to leave it on the hard
drive.
Question: how do I transfer my current workstation installation to
the new hard drive and retain Windows ? I don't want to start over
building my workstation installation from a fresh install.
Thanks

Start button>>Windows Administrative Tools>>Disk Management
will resize your partitions safely. Last time I used it, it did not
allow a choice of size but did half the drive. Windows sometimes gets
problems with gparted. Usually fixed by a disk scan in Windows but an
extra annoyance. A live fedora CD will let you adjust the new partition
to your liking and format the new partition for Fedora. If you use
multiple linux partitions they can be set from the live CD. Others will
have to give you all the tricks to installing grub2 for gpt disks and uefi.
