Hi everyone,

I have a finely tuned Fedora 40 image that I cloned using Clonezilla (see: https://sh.itjust.works/post/25762756)

I wanted to deploy it on my old Acer Aspire 5737z but it won’t boot. It’s just displaying a — on a black screen for hours.

I’m not so knowledgeable but I guess it means I would have to reinstall the GRUB or whatever.

I’ve booted into my Fedora Live USB and tried the lsblk command people were talking about on the web (I don’t understand the terminal). Here’s the result.

I think the SDA disk is the one I would like to boot from.

Can anyone help me understand what I have to do 😇🙏

    Apologies, I think I got a bit ahead of myself in the description.
    Once you’ve determined which partition is which (in your case, /dev/sda1 does appear to be the EFI partition, and /dev/sda3 appears to be your root partition), you need to mount them in this order

    mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
    mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi

        Could you send me the output of lsblk -no FSTYPE /dev/sda3 and ll /mnt?

          I can’t go in front of the computer for the next two days, but I’ll send you the output as soon as I can. Thanks
