A possibility perhaps. > I can mount the other partitions from old drive. So, I don't think it needs any special driver. I can mount /dev/sda1 to /boot2, which is the boot partition, and I formated the extra space on the drive as /dev/sda3 as /data. When I remove the old drive, and boot from the SATA drive it gets to the grub menu, and seems to load the kernel, but then doesn't find the LVM partition. When I run lvm command after booting from the old drive, one of the commands will list the duplicate volumes found, and also that the one is using /dev/sda2 instead of /dev/hda2. One comment I got said it might be using something other than hd0 for the SATA drive, but it also might be that the LVM volumn has something in it that links it to /dev/hda2.
