I have already copied /dev/sda1 to /dev/sdb8 using rsync, so now it is just a matter of setting up grub.
Not exactly.
Problem solved.... I hope...
When you suggested I modify the fstab file on the new partition, I went to look at it, and noticed that it was not copied from the old partition. Then I compared and figured out several files on the new partition /dev/sdb8 were not copied.
So looking at the rsync manual, I saw this: -u, --update skip files that are newer on the receiver
I was using -u as one of my rsync options when I copied /dev/sda1 to /dev/sdb8, and that is why several files didn't copy over. The partition /dev/sdb8 had a whole set of tumbleweed files that were newer than the leap 15.0 files, so they were not erased, hence not being able to find the proper library on calling chroot. So I re-ran my rsync copy, leaving out the -u option, and then ran my procedure.
Change root then worked fine, and I have updated grub. So now to reboot, and hopefully everything is set now.
Thanks.
Ok, I have confirmed it - booted into the new partition and sending this email from /dev/sdb8.
