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 😇🙏

        Since you’re using btrfs, there is likely another subfolder under /mnt. ll /mnt will tell you this, but the drive isn’t still mounted from the other day. When you’re mounting the EFI partition, you’re going to want to mount it to that folder, and not /mnt itself (/mnt/root/boot/efi, instead of /mnt/boot/efi) same for the binds (/dev, /proc, /run, etc)

          Here is what I’m getting.

          I’m almost ready to give up on my dream of establishing a perfectly tuned version of Fedora that I can deploy on all my computer just through Clonezilla…

            Interesting, both of my F40 installs with btrfs only have a root folder, but it looks like yours has created separate ones for /, /home, and /boot. run ll /mnt/boot; ll /mnt/home; ll /mnt/root so I can take a quick look at where things are located. My best guess is that sda1 gets mounted to /mnt/boot, while everything else (/dev, /sys, etc) gets mounted to /mnt/root
