I recently cloned a 40G Seagate HD to a 80G WD, then replaced the smaller with the larger. Now I get error messages about not finding any Seagate partitions when mkinitrd runs. Where could the bogus Perl-Bootloader by-id WARNING data be coming from? Does the newest mkinitrd need a perl that hasn't been pushed yet?
Are you using by-id in your /etc/fstab or in /boot/grub/device.map? If so, then that's your problem. Swapping out disks that use by-id doesn't work without cleaning up afterwards because by-id is keyed off the serial number of the disk.
It was device.map, but it wasn't me - YaST did it. ;-) I only use LABEL in fstab, but forgot about device.map. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
