Grub install no success

Post by triplemaya »

I have cloned a hdd of my pc to put in a laptop using clonezilla. The drive is not recognised by the hardware. Source and destination hardwares are both on legacy boot. I managed to boot the new system with Super Grub2 Disk so I could repair grub. Ran:
grub-install /dev/sda
which completed without errors, but system still does not recognise the drive.

After the grub install, you have to run:

Code: Select all

sudo update-grub
Linux Mint 20.3 (Cinnamon)
Linux Mint 19.3 (Cinnamon)
Bodhi Linux 6.0 (MokshaArcGreen)
Fedora 35 (Cinnamon)

Thanks.
New problem. Since switching off the pc Super Grub2 Disk no longer finds anything to boot too when I switch on again. Any ideas?
