Thank's for the advice.
Yesno, I'm not an chroot expert, perhaps before running sudo chroot /mnt you need to run sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev && sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts && sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc && sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys you don't need to do it, when using the systemd command. and you likely need to generate a new grub.cfg after sudo grub-install /dev/sda I guess the command to run is sudo update-grub I don't use it, since I manually edit grub.cfg. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
