As well as all my important stuff in /home, can I transfer over the operating system as well as everything in the root partition? What about the Windows Partition? Thanks in advance.

Bookmarking this, but still sounds a bit more of a hassle than it should be. I've done this before with some paid software packages and am disappointed this is not part of the operating system. Like, hey OS. It's 2024 and I'd like to upgrade my HD. Can you give me a hand? Go fuck myself? - go spend 4 hours nervously playing with software I've never heard of before? OS I thought we were cool??
