Hi everyone,

I installed rhes 2.1 on the scsi disk 72gig.  I would like to clone it on a 36 gig instead.  So I created partition on the new 36gig disk, dumped partitons from 72gig to the new 36 gig.  I moved the new disk to another but similar computer, and tried to boot from the new disk.  It did'nt work.  It is impossilble to boot from the new disk.  I booted in rescue and I saw the new disk with all the stuffs on it.

I certainly forgot something.


Partition table of 72 gig
fdisk -l /dev/cciss/c0d0

Disk /dev/cciss/c0d0: 255 heads, 32 sectors, 17433 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8160 * 512 bytes

           Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1   *         1        13     53024   83  Linux
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2            14       514   2044080   82  Linux swap
/dev/cciss/c0d0p3           515     17433  69029520   83  Linux

Partition table of 36 gig
fdisk -l /dev/cciss/c0d1

Disk /dev/cciss/c0d2: 255 heads, 32 sectors, 8716 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8160 * 512 bytes

           Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/cciss/c0d1p1   *         1        13     53024   83  Linux
/dev/cciss/c0d1p2            14       514   2044080   82  Linux swap
/dev/cciss/c0d1p3           515     8716  33464160   83 Linux

TIA!
