With Lenny I am able to take an image of a partition with an external imaging tool and rewrite it to a different location on the (first) hard drive. In this configuration I have a proprietary bootloader (BootitNG) in the MBR with Grub in the Lenny partition. My main objective is to clone a new install to run each for distinct purposes which I want to keep entirely separate.
After installing Squeeze this does not work. On trying to boot in the new location I just get a black screen with the word GRUB in the top corner. I think the main differences with Lenny are that I have Grub2 instead of Grub, ext4 instead of ext3 and UUIDs instead of /dev/sdxn in fstab. Both systems are AMD64. I don't know where the problem(s) lie. Is it reasonably possible to adjust settings somewhere to accomplish this relocation? If it's not reasonably straightforward I guess I'll just have to reinstall and retweak in the new location. (After relocating I could boot into the original Squeeze system and then mount the new Squeeze root partition in order to make changes.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
