Hello Chris,
I am back with you.
Thinking about your suggestion.
I generate a file: /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
and
a file initramfs
but these files are on the clone.
If I understand (I guess) the point in generating a new initramfs, I do not
see the point in generating a new grub.cfg file since it is not seen
during the grub2 precessing since the grub.cfg file used in on the
cloned partition until a make a new grub2-install /dev/sda
from the clone.
Anyway, in my opinion, the issue is when grub executes:
menuentry 'Fedora, with Linux 3.12.5-200.fc19.i686.PAE' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-3.12.5-200.fc19.i686.PAE-advanced-69ee06ed-3f6a-4b9f-9b86-6e24c1847cf6' {
set gfxpayload=text
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='hd0,msdos16'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos16 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos16 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos16 --hint='hd0,msdos16' c2010fed-5fcf-4c59-bca9-10922b131d8b
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root c2010fed-5fcf-4c59-bca9-10922b131d8b
fi
because the clone partition is not correct.
Something is missing:
failed to start creat static device mode in /dev
failed to start journal
etc...
To me looks like that the services are not started!!!
how the /dev partition is created?
What do yo think?
Regards.

The easiest way to do all of this after the cp -a of everything is to put together the clone at /mnt such that you have /mnt as rootfs, then /mnt/boot, and then use mount -B to mount the faux file systems, /proc, /dev/, /sys at their respective locations, /mnt/proc, /mnt/dev, /mnt/sys. Then chroot /mnt.
