Hi list,
- reported by a friend of mine, when cloning (ghosting) a 10.3 disk in its
entirety, the cloned disk will not boot due to the serial numbers of the
cloned disk doesn't match the serial of the original disk.
- apparently this serial is written somewhere in the conf files of GRUB.
- I've not seen this as I've not been to his place (quite far from here,
trying to solve the matter through e-mail...), can this be true??
- I mean, really? :-)
Sort of
I ran into this problem
Instead of using something like /dev/sda2 as the root device in grub it
has /disk/id-by-xxxxxxx or similar which it uses to identify the hard
drive, so if this changes it screws up the initrd, if you edit the boot
loader and create a new initrd it works fine from the rescue console.
Not sure why it changed.
