  1. Connect new SSD to host PC
  2. Open GParted
  3. In GParted, create an MBR ext4 partition covering the entire new SSD
  4. Download Clonezilla alternative-stable
  5. Follow Steps 3-5 under the GNU/Linux Method B: Manual heading
  6. Power off PC
  7. Turn on PC while pressing Esc
  8. In the menu that appears, enter the BIOS
  9. Disable UEFI boot
  10. Enable Legacy boot
  11. Save BIOS settings
  12. Exit the BIOS
  13. Press Esc as the PC reboots
  14. In the menu follows, select the boot device option
  15. In the menu that follows, select the new SSD
  16. Follow these instructions
  17. Shut down the PC
  18. Remove the old SSD
  19. Install the new SSD
  20. Repeat Steps 7 & 8 above
  21. Undo Steps 9 & 10 above
  22. Repeat Steps 11 & 12 above
  23. Reboot onto the new SSD
  24. Run lsblk to check size of root logical volume. If it matches the expected free size of the new disk, stop here. If not, continue
  25. Open GParted
  26. Expand the new SSD's partition to fill the entire disk
  27. Exit GParted
  28. Reboot the PC
  29. Run lsblk to check size of root logical volume. If it matches the expected free size of the new disk, stop here. If not, continue
  30. Run # lvextend /dev/mapper/RootLVname /dev/ExpandedPartitionName
  31. Run # resizefs /dev/mapper/RootLVname
  32. Run # mount /dev/mapper/RootLVname /
  33. Reboot the PC
  34. lsblk should now show the desired capacity and correct / mountpoint for the root LV
