        I am really grateful for your detailed explanation! I went
        through all the steps, checked the IDs from efibootmgr and
        blkid with respect to the various configuration files - and
        found no mismatch, but again I ended up with the grub prompt.
        Tomorrow I am going to spend another rainy afternoon
        double-checking - and then I'll give up and do a fresh fedora
        install on blank /dev/sda (which might be a good idea anyway
        after all those years of system-upgrade). Things that matter
        to me (home partition, VMs) are all stored on other devices
        anyway. Usually I want to find out thing (and nearly always
got there), but now I am stuck.
    I seem to recall that you duplicated the UUID's of the original
    partitions. If so, did you change them after you had moved the
    data? If not, you have 2 partitions with the same UUID, and how is
    grub supposed to know which one it should use?

No, the IDs should be unique. I have moved the partitions by Gparted, which kept the UUIDS (in detail: I copied the respective partition and deleted the origin immediately after).
