   Apropos of not too much, I finally got around to copying my old 120GB Pi   
   boot disk to an image file, and splatting that back onto a 2TB SSD that   
   now has according to a GUI based disk editor shitloads of 'unused' space.   
      
   (The reason I didnt do it directly was on account of a lack of   
   functional and accessible USB slots in the computer I used.)   
      
   All looks ok, with a bootfs and a rootfs partition on it,  but I haven't   
   actually booted it yet.   
      
   I didn't sync it, I went to the supermarket instead, and left it   
   running, and then left it running on the second transfer while I had   
   the evening meal.   
      
   It appears to be OK   
      
   More later... I overslept badly and it may be Monday before more gets done.
