And the desktop PC has another hardware than your laptop! I've hat a similar problem 3 weeks ago with one of my customers, I cloned a disk of a desktop PC (Suse 8.2) by hand with another desktop PC (Suse 10.2). I had the a simlar error (I don't remember the exactly error text) and Suse 8.2 didn't find the partitions! I use always ext3 as filesystem. So I cloned again the disk in the Suse 8.2 machine and all went well, no errors! An idea: take parted or acronis Disk Director, etc, boot your Laptop with one of these tools (e.g. take knoppix on CD/DVD) and resize your partitions a little bit! But leave your disk in your latop! parted or acronis, .. should make correct boundaries while resizing. Let me know if you have success.
