Moving Fedora 14 to another disk

I need to move Fedora 14 to another hard drive to make more room for Windows.  My current Fedora configuration consists of a boot partition, and an lvm2 partiton consisting of root, home, and swap.  I have installed a 2nd hard drive and plan to use lvm vgextend, lvm pvmove and lvm vgreduce to move Fedora to the 2nd drive.  I understand that I will also have to move the /boot partition as well.
 
My questions are:
 
How to I tell grub where the system is now located, or will I have to re-install grub?
Do I simply create new mount points for /root and /home?
How do I tell the “system” where the new swap is located?
Are there other considerations that I need to look into?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
