OK, tried again a few reboots. I get it now to work somewhat by not physically moving the drives but playing only with the RAID controller, and in boot/grub/menu.lst leaving root at sda1. Now it boots from the big drive, but hangs on a missing /proc. df shows: /dev/sda1 / tmpfs /lib/init/rw udev /dev and that's it. How do I fix that? do I need to rsync /proc from the old disk as well? And /sys? Christian Zimmermann FIGUGEGL!

I think
Is this what it is supposed to be?
yeah, it just reports it can't read the floppy drive.
