kc8pnd Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 So the last week I have been getting some random sounds from my HD (Clicking every minute or so.). I have used CCC and SuperDuper! to clone my install onto another HD. I can boot into it fine but only if I use the bootloader on the original HD. Once I take the original HD out of the scenario the system don't boot. Is there something I failed to do to the new drive making it not present it's self as a bootable option? Note that these two HDs are the same make and model. Original HD Disk Description : WDC WD5000AACS-00ZUB0 Media Total Capacity : 500.11 GB (500,107,862,016 Bytes) Connection Bus : SATA Write Status : Read/Write Connection Type : External S.M.A.R.T.

Thanks! There are different kinds of cloning methods. With CCC did you choose the Everything method or the file method? Are the UUIDs the same? Not all clone tools include the MBR which is needed to boot. Perhaps Chameleon's boot0 hasn't been but into the MBR as in Step 8. http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2009/11/how...ually-from.html Google to find a more recent Chameleon*tar.gz to download. You should already have both Cham's boot and boot1h on the SL partition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems the second drive was lacking a bootloader! All is fine, Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
