I am sure this is a fairly simple problem to solve, though so far I've not found how to do it on these forums or google.
I'm looking to go from a 750GB HDD with two partions - a 50GB main partition running Linux Mint and a 700GB data partition - to a 2TB drive with 100GB and 1.9GB partitions.
What would be the easiest way to do this with Clonezilla?
So far just doing a normal disk to disk clone does it just fine, but the sizes of the partitions are not correct when I boot with the new drive, and gparted won't allow me to resize them with the extra space.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Make
-a normal savedisk image with clonezilla from your 750GB HDD to an external usb drive.
-Change your HDDs (750GB HDD to 2TB)
-then use Clonezilla restoredisk in expert mode from your external drive as follows:
If the target disk size is larger than the size of source disk of image, e.g. "2013-05-03-img",
you can try to use option "-k1" which will create the partition table proportionally in the target disk
and turn on the option "-r" to resize the file system in the partition automatically.
The advanced parameters for restoring mode can you find too: http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/doc/02_Restore_disk_image/advanced/09-advanced-param.php
