I did a quick hack that allowed me to boot up in a relitively stable enviroment with some problems regarding keys I am guessiing this is the keys that generate on first login, that get used to check packages. I built a FC6 PC using a single partion and no swap, then using a recovery CD rsync'd the / partition over the top of the install. I did not sync the /boot, this worked and proved the sata drive and cards are compatible. I am going to clone the partition to a backup, re clone the original disk on to the sata and copy the menu.lst, device.map and fstab with minor modification back. I am hoping this will work, I may need to reinstall grub but that will not be a problem. Any thoughts on if this will work?
test from the grub command line, finding it's idea of what drive is what is a good start.
reinstalling grub may prove a good idea, it can reconstruct the device map. -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Z1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Advice http://webfoot.com/advice/email.top.php http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 You cannot reply off-list:-)
