  | |  | Moving root partition | Moving root partition 2003-08-18 - By Christian Fredrickson
Back I have a disk drive that required a new driver be compiled on RedHat 9 in order to work. I want to move / to the new drive. I mapped the new drive as /newRoot and used find . -depth -print | cpio -padumV /newRoot to copy / to the new drive.
I edit fstab to mount old root to /newRoot and mount the new drive as /. I reboot and get an error in e2fsck while the partitions are being checked. Are there any steps that I am missing in order to move this partition?
