Suppouse that you wanna 'clone' /dev/hda to /dev/hdb
install /dev/hdb
Start the machine in single mode and:
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb
Shutdown
Extract /dev/hda
Insert /dev/hdb in /dev/hda
Start machine

If you use the latest version of Ghost you will be ok. The only thing
that I have found, is that it may affect the Grub MBR contents. All I
ended up doing was to boot the install CD then boot into rescue mode and
reinstall grub back to the MBR, then I could boot the new drive again
with the new partition sizes. Other than that, I found it to work very
well. (And also works very quick)
