Guess I must be misunderstanding the thread. Thought issue was he imaged an SSD drive to NVME drive, and it was still booting and using the SSD drive? Seems seeing what blkid and cat /proc/partitions would show what was true picture. But not sure how GRUB isn't involved. As I said, I just did the reverse. Had a Dell that had a 500G nvme and web site showed that was the max size, so got a 1TB SSD drive, and imaged the 500G to the 1TB and then removed the 500G nvme. So, hopefully the problem is eventually resolved, and will get an answer on what solved it. > > -- > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue +------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
