   Recovering a system from one machine on    
   21 Aug 25 17:17:33   
   
   From: alan@asandco.co.uk   
      
   After months without a working system, one with a new motherboard actually   
    started up and is currently running off a Mint 22.1 install flash drive.   
      
   It is cloning the contents of a 1TB drive to a 2TB drive. When it is   
    finished, the 1TB drive will be removed.   
      
   The problem is that the 1TB Nvme drive was set on an Asus motherboard   
    whereas the replacement is a Gigabyte board. When trying to boot from it,   
    it gets to the grub menu but comes to a halt after scrolling several lines   
    up the screen.   
      
   I don't want to lose the contents by reinstalling. Is there a procedure I   
    can take to recover it?
