> Greetings mythizens, I got a message that a storage drive was about to fail. I just received the replacement, used gparted to copy and paste from the failing drive to the new one, and the box won't boot? I thought that gparted cloned everything including UUID and Labels. Any suggestions?

Is this your system drive, or a second drive for storage ?

In the former, you may need to install the bootloader (assuming BIOS booting rather than EFI)

For teh second, it may be a case of the drives now appearing in a different order to the machine - is the replacement drive connected to the same interface port ?
