I have an old(ish) Compaq Evo D510 and I put in a new SATA drive, which needed a PCI card adapter.
Installed Ubuntu fine with a seperate boot & home partition.
In the BIOS options, I can only set it to boot from IDE drive (or USB & CD). The original IDE drive has been removed.
So, I need to put the boot partition onto a USB and set the BIOS to boot that.
Is it just a case of making a clone of this partition, using Clonezilla or do I need to do some tweaks to the menu.lst file so that it will just load up Ubuntu as normal?
Thanks
