File-copying software like rsync is quite sufficient for doing
“bare-metal restores” on Linux.
Not for restoring grub.
After the bulk file copy (with rsync or other tool), you need to fix up

1) /etc/fstab with the new volume UUIDs
2) reinstall grub
That’s it. I have successfully migrated bootable systems many times using
this procedure.
