    Cannot boot from new harddisk

    Hello!

    I have a notebook with a 40 GB harddisk.
    Partitioning is (says QTParted)
    a few megs unpartitioned space
    a logical partition with winXP in it
    a primary datapartition with vfat
    a primary swap partition
    a primary ext3 partition with kanotix 2005-03 on it.

    Everything is working well.
    now I've baught a 80 GB USB harddisk, connected it to the notebook and copied the old disk to the new one with
    a Knoppix (DVD-Version from LinuxTag) and the command
    dd if=/UNIONFS/dev/hda of=/UNIONFS/dev/uba

    then I removed the 40GB disk from the notebook and inserted the 80 GB disk.
    First I thaught everithing works well. Grub displays the correct systems and Windows is booting fine.
    But the Kanotix gets a kernel-panik when booting.

    In QTParted, the partitions and on the new disk are shown correct as on the old one.

    Any suggestions where this kernel-panic could come from?
    And sorry if i am in the wrong forum, but I just don't know where to start.

    Hello again.

    I've got it working.

    I don't know exactly what it was. I've done a few things:

    The first time I've forgotten to deactivate swap in Knoppix (via bootoption noswap)
    Now I deactivated it and copied the swap- and the linux-partition again.
    After that I've done a fsck.ext3 -f on the linux-partition which didn't show any errors and now the Kanotix boots as it schould.

    Just would let you know.
