As someone else has put it elsewhere in the thread: new laptop means
new drivers, potentially moving from legacy MBR to UEFI ... easier in
many ways to put a clean install of Debian on from new media to start
with (also wiping out whatever was there before if it came preinstalled
with Windows or whatever).

There's more than one way to do it: if you absolutely know what partition
sizes you want, maybe - LVM and one partition is a fairly sensible starting
point because partitions will grow and shrink, for example.

dd is your friend if you know _exactly_ what you are doing :)

As ever, the right way is what works for your requirements: sometimes
people need something straightforward to get them started. Making
work for yourself at the outset needs to be justified by saving time
later on, perhaps.

All the very best, as ever,
