Hi,
I have my funtoo system on a old hard drive and i want to transfer on a new ssd drive.
I think doing like this:
1. Boot with a livecd, like system recscue cd.
2. Prepare my new ssd disk, with fdisk.
I use MBR and no ufei
3 Format new partition ssd disk and mount partitions (like a new install)
4. make a copie of the system from the old hard drive to the new ssd drive, by: cp -a /Old-Hard-Drive /New-SSD-Drive
(cp -a normaly copy with the good privilege no ?)
5. Update the /etc/fstab to write the good place for /boot et / etc...
6. update grub
But i'm using grub-legacy and no boot-update...
i edit manualy the /boot/grub-legacy/grub.conf with exemple this:
of-war nicolas # cat /boot/grub-legacy/grub.conf
default 1
timeout 10
title Funtoo - 4.0.3
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-4.0.3 root=/dev/sda3 video=uvesafb:1920x1080-24,mtrr:3,ywrap console=tty1
title Funtoo - 4.0.4
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-4.0.4 root=/dev/sda3 video=uvesafb:1920x1080-24,mtrr:3,ywrap console=tty1
and i install manualy grub in the mbr with old method...
what do you think ?
