Re: Re: QNAP TS-110: how to replace HDD?

I tried it actually that way:

- same HDD layout

- copy data (cp -a)

- insert new disk

- try to start


But that resulted in a non-starting system.  It seems to me, that 'update-initramfs -u' is required.

Any other way directly from the command line?  Would be nice to 'activate' the installer running with the old HDD, replace the HDD (prepared as above) and then follow the procedure from http://www.cyrius.com/journal/debian/installer-flash-kernel.
