I tried to clone a boot drive ( on a bigger one ),

The issue starts when I change the id and try to boot from it...
What is the script? The best online resource I can suggest is Ian
Mapleson's page on cloning, at
http://www.sgidepot.co.uk/disksfiles.html#CLONE (use the tar method if
the disk is EFS rather than XFS). I do this quite often without any
issue, mostly on Indys, though I use tar slightly differently (to
exclude /proc and mounts).
If you boot with the original working disk, with the clone connected,
what does fx(1M) show for the clone?
[start fx (you need to be root), select the controller, drive,and LUN 0,
then do label, show, all]
From Prom, ls
gives :
dksc(0,1,8)/:
sgilabel sash symmon
esf read error, bad count
no file
system found for "/".
and what does the output of nvram(1M) show, especially for
SystemPartition and OSLoadPartition?
