I would like to move my linux install (redhat 7.0) to a bigger hard drive. Are there any utilities to do this easily?

The one with linux on it is a 8.4 gig western digital and also has a fat32 partition on half of it. The other drive is a 9.1 gig western digital. Can norton ghost copy and resize linux partitions (ext2)?

WD has a drive copy utility that you can use. However I don't know if it can resize partitions.

Does it copy ext2 partitions? I can't seem to find proof that is supports such a thing on WD's site.

Also, does anyone know what the command to run disk druid is?

I do believe Ghost can resize partitions. If you have Norton SystemWorks, it comes with a workable stripped down version.
