Yeah, I'd expect using a clone tool would give you new partitions the
same size as the old ones. Though there might be options to use it
either way.
How do I get the fs to cover the whole part?
You could grow the partition. I haven't used clonezilla, so I couldn't
advise on how to use it to do that.
And afterwards: Is there a way to convert an ext3 into ext4 fs from
the desktop (seems it is hard to unmount /home)
Well, if you log out as a user, and log in as root, root's home space
isn't inside /home, so /home doesn't need to be mounted.
