I have ran into a issue here. I copied everything over to sdb, my temp |
| 2 |
drive. When I try to boot it, it still boots from sda which is the |
| 3 |
primary drive. I can not get it to boot from the copy. I did update |
| 4 |
the fstab file to point to the new sdb partitions, I use labels for that |
| 5 |
and they have different names. I also edited grub and told it root was |
| 6 |
sdb2. When I boot, everything mounted is sda. |

I tried chrooting in and building a init thingy, still boots to sdb. |

What gives here? |

Those are from the copy. Here is grub: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
title=Initramfs-new_drive |
| 28 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 29 |
kernel /bzImage-3.3.1-1 root=/dev/sdb2 init=/sbin/init nox |
| 30 |
initrd /initramfs-3.3.1-1-tmp.img |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
I have done this in the past and it worked but not now. Is this the |
| 33 |
init thingy mounting sda stuff and then Gentoo carries on from there? |
| 34 |
If so, how do I tell the init thingy to point to sdb stuff? |
| 35 |

Thoughts? |
