How can I get my HDD from my dead computer installed on a different computer
Asked by
tom brock
i have been using Ubuntu on a P4 compaq presario tower for about 2 years. The mother board on the Presario finally gave out after 7 years of continious use.
I would like to install the HDD containing all of my setup and configuration in a Dell Optiplex gx260.
When I attempt to boot on the Dell I get a GRUB error 2.
I have attempted a clean install on the original Dell HDD and I am able to read all ofthe data on the HDD from the Compaq.
Is there a way to get the Dell to boot from the HDD that was originaly in the Compaq?
