I guess the output of mount above shows that there is a problem with
the file system(s) and devices.

Nevertheless, I also believe that I have problems with the bootloader.

When you boot the installation DVD, there is an option 'rescue
mode' in the initial menu that comes up. Look under 'advanced options'.

Have you tried that ?

Hi Filip,

I did not think of using the installation CD.

Anyway, due to pressing timelines, I had to get a working computer at the moment so I took out the new drive, and put the old one again for the time being.

Thank you for your advice I will follow it up when I have time to try again the replacement.

Follow through the steps, and you will get a menu where you have
two options that should help you:

-  reinstall the bootloader
- 'start a shell in the installer environment'. This will set up the
  chroot environment for you.
