Boot from HD

Merlin

Hi
I've mounted my SATA HD and copied the data from the SD card.

How do I tell Lubuntu to boot from the Hard Drive?

Thanks

    I understand the SD card is needed for the initial boot but I gather "control" can then be passed to the HD but I don't know how that is done.

Struggling to get Berryboot to work. It keeps failing after trying to stop CPU 0?

The link below works very well to move the file system to a SATA hard drive.

If you then add swap too using the new drive I think it improves the performance even more.
