After you have untarred or otherwise transfered the old root system files
to the new disk you can use grub to write a MBR just like it is stated in

Perhaps a stupid thing, but I remember having to switch from mesa to nvidia

I think you are onto something here. I just stumbled on the same problem.
Trying old monitors don't work unless I set the resolution down to lowest
standard 640x480, but new monitors will work just fine. If you check the

Yep, re-emerging gcc for CHOST i686 seems to do the trick.

I have had problems with this card before, because I need to use both
