Old disk was 300GB and failing. New is 1TB.
I replaced the old harddrive and made few steps to copy the system back
to the new drive (see below).
Obviously I missed something as the system does not boot. BIOS comes
up alright.
I guess that I overlooked something with the boot files, but what and
how to remedy this?
Did you reinstall grub (or whatever bootloader you use)? You need
something like
# grub-install /dev/sda
to install the bootloader to the MBR. An rsync would not copy that.
No. I did not.
Do I need to tell grub-install that the root '/' resides on /dev/sda2,
and that the /boot resides on /dev/sda1?
If yes: I am not sure how to use the --root-directory option.
Many thanks,
Itay
