It seems that copy is not good. How you did it? More info on hard disks in your computer and where is installed system? Something as 'fdisk -l' and mark system partition should be fine.
Thanks for the help. I should have been more specific in the first place, but I was trying to keep my query short and readable. There are three drives and one DVD in my server, all four of them SATA.
The drive I'm replacing holds only DVD movies. The other two drives contain my / and /home mounts. That's why I thought that replacing it would be safe and easy.
Understandable. Is this drive referenced by /boot/grub/device.map, or do the drives take on a different order via your BIOS with the new drive?
I don't know what this particular drive has to do with GRUB, as it was added to the system long after the other two drives were in use. One would think that GRUB could care less if it is replaced, but apparently that's not true.
Sounds like it is now referenced via device.map, which could mean a different boot order from your BIOS. Most will let you give an order these days. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
