hi everyone
i am trying to replace my laptop drive with another,
to clone the laptop drive to a second drive i followed 'Full system
backup with rsync' from the wiki
1 create a partition table and filesystem on the second drive
2 mount the drive to /mnt
3 rsync -aAXv
--exclude={"/dev/*","/proc/*","/sys/*","/tmp/*","/run/*","/mnt/*","/media/*","/lost+found"}
/ /mnt
before i swap the drive in the laptop with the second drive
do i chroot and run the following commands to configure the bootloader
and do i need to do this from installation cd ?
# grub-install --target=i386-pc /dev/sdx
# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
