To answer my 1st question myself: EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi expects the grub.cfg file in EFI/ubuntu, so making a copy of that directory as I did will give the effect I observed. Fortunately Debian (and thus Devuan) have their own version that expects grub.cfg in EFI/debian Maybe my 2nd question should if - Is it possible to launch rEFInd from grub (and if so, how)?
Hi, I have an old Ubuntu set-up with a root-on-ZFS main fs, /boot on an ext4 partition; GPT partition scheme with an EFI and a "GPT Boot Partition" in a laptop with UEFI support. GRUB has also been installed to the disk's MBR so normally I don't get into rEFInd. At some point I tested a few BSD versions on other partitions of the disk, which I booted into through raw disk access in VirtualBox (only to the required partitions of course). This worked, but now I've decided I wanted another ZFS pool...
Hi, I'm doing a device-to-device clone as I write, to upgrade a MSWin laptop from its original HDD to an SDD. As I watched the process attack the Linux partition that also exists on the drive I realised that it's formatted under BTRFS and that BTRFS has SSD-specific options. At least, I've seen it put up a notice about that when running mkfs.btrfs . My question is how important those specific settings are, if CloneZilla takes them into account or if I can set them myself later? Thanks!
What filesystem do you use? If HFS+ I'd suggest finding a copy of the free/shareware version of "Carbon Copy Cloner" which should still work just fine for 10.12 . It does use rsync for doing the cloning but intelligently, skipping everything that will be recreated when you boot/use the clone, plus it will "bless" the new drive which AFAIK is required to make it bootable. You could run it on the drive you just created with CloneZilla (supposing it has non-Mac partitions); just reformat the Mac partition(s)....

Never mind, I mixed up ours vs. yours. Sorry for the noise!
