Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Moving a boot partition...?

Content Type: text/plain

I need some handholding by someone in the group, please!

My preferred boot volume for eCS (2.0beta1), formatted bootable JFS, is
on disk 3 which has a bad FAT (at least that is what CHKDSK says). eCS
seems to run from this volume without any trouble. I tried to copy the
entire volume to another volume on disk 2, formatted bootable JFS. I
used 4OS/2's COPY /s/h. Then I used LVM to change the volume letters and
adjust BM options. The newly copied and renamed volume boots OK, but it
has no desktop! What a bother. How can I accomplish what I want, to move
a boot volume and have the newly copied volume boot and run properly?
