Old disk was 300GB and failing.  New is 1TB.

I replaced the old harddrive and made few steps to copy the system back to the new drive (see below).

Obviously I missed something as the system does not boot.  BIOS comes up alright.

 

I guess that I overlooked something with the boot files, but what and how to remedy this?

 

Did you reinstall grub (or whatever bootloader you use)? You need something like
# grub-install /dev/sda
to install the bootloader to the MBR. An rsync would not copy that.
