Summary of steps

1. Using rsync -aHq I backed up most of the file system (excluding
/proc, /sys, /run, /srv, and /tmp)

Well, right.  Here is some of the output (manually typed)

mount point /proc does not exist [Note: similar errors for few more
missing mount points such as /usr/local, /cache]
special device /dev/sda1 does not exist  [Note: that's the would be
/boot partition]
special device /dev/mapper/vg-home does not exist [Note: would-be /home

[Same error for the other file trees that reside on Logical Volumes]

Itay

after you had rsync-ed most of the filesystem over to the new disk, did
you then manually create the special mount points you'd left out, like
/proc, /sys ...  ?

Following your inquiry I realized that I should havd done it.
However, I don't get the bootloader (grup) to start, which I presume come earlier in the boot process?

Many thanks,
Itay
