Thread: Booting from external HD

-

i have been using ubuntu years, , got large (2tb) external hd go crazy lots of different installs - laptop old , small (hp pavilion zv6000, 2004/5 vintage) , 3 or 4 oss fit on 93gb hd. worked fine, grub finds installs in ext4 extended partition , boot if machine hasn't been turned off. have start install on laptop's hd first, before external hd becomes available.

laptop dying, , taking on newer machine - more ram, more hd space, more oomph round. when plug external hd ubuntu installs on it, mounted ok, , grub finds them, won't boot them if restart rather cold boot.

set bios enable booting external devices, install first ubuntu usb stick, put external device option 3rd, after dvd/cd drive , internal hd. left network boot disabled.

error message says partition (correct uuid) not found, , follows line saying drive hd1 not report c/h/s numbers.

need boot external hd? machine i'm working sony vaio vgn-fw235j.

are trying boot external hard drive cloned older system onto? need install ubuntu onto external hdd first before move older system onto external. have right idea, order of operation wrong.
