Hello! I tried to migrating from the first to second SATA drive My Debian Etch OS with Gparted.
I copied the /, /usr, /var, swap, /tmp, /home partitions of the system to the second SATA: sdb with Gparted. Then I tried to set up grub to boot this Debian system from the first SATA drive sda, and did the following: - boot the install CD of the Etch Netinstall - at prompt use expert - ... - detecting disks - did not disk partition - run a shell Here I follow the mini howto: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Reinstalling_GRUB cd / mount -t ext3 /dev/discs/disc1/part1 /mnt # this is the / partition of the sdb mount -t ext3 /dev/discs/disc1/part2 /mnt/usr # this is the /usr partition of the sdb mount -t proc proc /mnt/proc mount -t sysfs sys /mnt/sys mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev chroot /mnt /bin/bash grub-install /dev/sda Error: /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/disc does not have any corresponding BIOS drive. I can't here as root to use nano because of the bterm error. I did the following to get some editor, namely mcedit: TERM=xterm export TERM mcedit /etc/fstab I can to use here mcedit, but with difficulties. Still can to edit fstab, however. But, I can't to install grub to boot sdb root from the sda MBR. Any advices will be appreciated! -- Regards, Paul Csanyi http://www.freewebs.com/csanyi-pal/index.htm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
