I have a new laptop with two partitions, one is currently loaded with Windows 7, the other is blank.

I'm pretty familiar with using dd to backup/copy drives, but I'm wondering how I will deal with the boot loader on the new drive, being that there is an existing Windows install. After I copy the Ubuntu disk into the new partition (which is larger than the Ubuntu disk), what would I need to do to set up the boot loader with the existing install of Windows (which the current Ubuntu loader will not know about)?

Not sure if this is just what you want, but you could try to force grub installation / configuration. You can find detailed information here.
