I've used g4l (ghost for linux) to do this. It worked pretty well.

I have a running installation on a 20 GB disk I'd like to move to something a little bigger and then take advantage of the new space.  Is that something I could do with DD and then use another program to expand my filesystems into the available space?  What would I use to expand the filesystem and is it available from the command line or by using knoppix, etc.?
