How best to move the 15.1? I have an available empty 128G usb stick if an intermediary device is needed.
Assuming you have enough space you could simply run
btrfs replace start old-partition new-partition /
and after it has finished reinstall bootloader on new device. I am not sure what happens when it is interrupted so you certainly are advised to make backup first and probably test it in VM.
Thanks for reply Andrei (and jdd). I won't have time, until next weekend at least, to get back to this project. After 'google-time' on the subject, this is starting to look like it is more complicated, and time-intensive too, both in planning and in actual transfer, than I had anticipated :(
Well, you need to move data from old to new partition, so you need at least as much time as required to read data from old partition and write it to new partition.
