*ahem* to the tune of Beatles "Yesterday"
Yesterday, All those backups seemed a waste of pay. Now that all my files has gone away. Oh I believe in yesterday. Suddenly, There's not half the files there used to be, And there's a milestone hanging over me Mandriva asked so suddenly. I pressed something wrong What it was I could not say. Now all my data's gone and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay. Yesterday, The need for back-ups seemed so far away. I knew my data was all here to stay, Now I believe in yesterday.

How? Please help... i suppose the old drive was installed as /dev/hda1 and you're trying to boot it as /dev/hdb2, check your master/slave setup, try to boot the drive as hdax and see what happens, post back the results.
