The geometry of your new drive will be different than the one that you
imaged from, and Grub can be a little finicky at times when it comes to
geometry, and looking for partitions it thought were here, when they are
now there.

&gt; Subject: [ale] Grub and Ghost
&gt; 
&gt; All,
&gt; 
&gt; I have a dual boot computer that I decided to duplicate.  
&gt; (Win 2K Pro / SUSE 9.2)
&gt; 
&gt; I booted a dos floppy and ran Ghost to copy the main drive to 
&gt; a second I installed in the machine .  It claimed to complete 
&gt; succesfully and I can mount both the copied NTFS and EXT3 
&gt; partitions from Linux.
&gt; 
&gt; When I put this machine in another computer and try to boot 
&gt; it, I just get the word &quot;grub&quot; and a blank screen.
&gt; 
&gt; I have checked /boot/grub/menu.lst and the boot message, and 
&gt; everything else, is referencing (hd0,2), which was correct 
&gt; for the original machine, and is also correct for the new machine.
&gt; 
&gt; On the new machine, I can boot the SUSE 9.2 Live CD and mount 
&gt; the partitions, I just can't boot via grub.
&gt; 
&gt; Any suggestions on what I need to do?
&gt; 
&gt; Thanks
&gt; Greg
