On revisiting this OP, something bothers me. I cannot find fdisk output from either old or new HD anywhere in the thread. Please provide so that I can try to make the bother go away, and maybe provide the solution.

One other question, to clarify, your use of the word Grub in this thread has only one meaning, Grub Legacy, right? IOW, you did not install 13.1 fresh on the new HD and leave the default Grub2 selected as bootloader, right?
No, it was an upgrade from a previous system with the original "legacy" grub. I have grub 2 on another computer and prefer legacy. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
