IFL - cloning an Ubuntu system - target won't boot
Posted: Mon Mar 15, 2021 2:58 pm
I have a Dell 7480 notebook with Ubuntu 20.04.
I'm trying to clone it with IFL 3.40 to another identical Dell 7480 notebook
The target system report "no bootable devices found" after the image is restored.
Image creation:
I booted to IFL from USB on the original system and saved an image to a network drive.
Backup / Full Backup / backup from internal SSD sda / check Entire Drive all partitions (MBR0, MBR1, ext 2/3/4 / Single File Set / File (OS) / (/mnt1/share...) / Validate / Start
Image restore:
I booted to IFL from USB on the target system and restored the image from the network drive.
Restore / Normal / File OS / check Entire Drive / Restore to Linux / internal SSD (sda) / Options - add checkbox for Write standard MBR
I've verified the MBR0 partitiion is set active in Partition Work
What did I miss?
