More info needed but...
This cloned drive are you using it as your second drive and "old" drive as
first drive? If so the second drive will not boot - you wil have kernel
panic.
If you use it as first drive - menu.lst on boot does it look the same.
If there is no way you can boot then you probably can not change anything on
it.
OK some advice I read about - not tried it myself.
Instead of install use UPGRADE so that the system can sort of "upgrade
itself" - the writer said that sometimes the system can pull itself up by
its bootstrings. He alsa said sometimes you tinker your system in to panic
and this my save you.
This is probably better than a re-install and worth a try.
Please I would like to have some backfeed if this is succesfull. It is
always good to know actions that can be taken.
Johan
