[opensuse] restoring efi boot / home after failed SSD
I recently suffered a cataclysmic SSD failure. This machine has two SSD drives, the M.2 drive (sdb) holds the root partition (sdb1) and swap, which is all still intact, whilst the SATA drive which failed (sda) held the boot/efi partition in addition to the /home partition, and hence all my personal data. I've installed a new replacement SATA SSD, booted the openSUSE rescue system from a USB stick, changed root to the original oS installation on sdb1 and then, from within yast2, created a new /boot/efi partition (sda1) and /home (sda2) on the new disk. What is the next step to get this to boot? Currently I'm at the error: no such device: /efi/boot/fallback.efi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

How many hours of use?

Just restore them from backup? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
