Rsync works OK, but you need to run both systems off
a live USB so the real disks aren't being touched
while being copied.

Then you'll need to chroot into the new system from the
live USB and run grub install to make it bootable
(and edit all the UUID info and such in the grub
environment, grub.cfg, and fstab).

I just built a new computer and moved my old one this way
(but I didn't use UEFI booting on either - I have no idea
how that might complicate things).
