On my workstation, with FC9, I attached a second drive, identical to the linux boot drive. Both drives are SATA. The linux boot drive is a dual boot of windows XP and FC9. In single user mode, I cloned sda to sdb dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=32M I shut down and remove the second drive and insert it into another workstation. Booting the second workstation fails because it cannot find /dev/root, among other things, and the kernel panics. Repeating the cloning does not seem to have any effect. This effectively says that an OEM cannot have a master disk to clone disks off of it for use in other machines. Any ideas how to properly clone fedora disks so that they are bootable on other machines? Bing™ brings you maps, menus, and reviews organized in one place. Try it now. |
