Hey Guys i would be glad if someone could help me out with this ,
I’ve got one SSD and one HDD
and using UEFI
I have already installed the Linux operating System on HDD .
Cloned the Root partition With clonezilla to the SSD.
Also Windows is already installed on this ssd.
Althought grub is already Working with booting From HDD
Now i want to " reSetup" the grub bootloader to dualboot and booting Into the cloned Partition from SSD.
And delete the old Linux Partition on the HDD.
info from parted:
Model: ATA SATA3 256GB SSD (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 256GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

sda3 is the windows partition
sdb5 was cloned to sda4 usind clonezilla
An operating system is not a single file or application you can “copy”, you would need to change some critical configurations in multiple places for the version on the SSD to work properly.
From the info you provided i am assuming your:
/dev/sdb5 is your old Linux install.
/dev/sda4 is your new/cloned Linux version.
If the above is correct please provide the recursive directory listing inside:
/dev/sdb1 Which is the ESP on your HD.
/dev/sda1 Which is the ESP on your SSD.
Lets first correct/change/adjust the above, then we can delve into the Linux partitions to make needed changes…
mounted root and efi from SSD
then chrooted with "manjaro-chroot /mnt /bin/bash "
"grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=manjaro --recheck "
"grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg "
HDD removed…
now i am able to see the grub bootloader with manjaro and windows to boot
however when i am booting manjaro it says
/dev/sda4: clean, 387893/2523136 files, 3048105/10086400 blocks
[TIME ] Timed out waiting for device /dev/disk/by-uuid/E03F-1BE7.

You are in emergency node. After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view systen logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, "systemctl default" or "exit" to boot into default node.
Give root password for maintenance (or press Control-D to continue):
Nice seems like we have nothing to worry about or to copy, because they look identical.
Except that there seems to be a /grub subdir on sda1 which we will just ignore at moment…
The fstab file to edit is ofcourse located in the SSD partition for your Linux, and the partitions the entries refer to need to point to the partitions on the SSD…
Seems i replied before i saw your reply above and solution mark…
Well done
