Booting Ubuntu on a different computer

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 436 / 2 Years ago, thu, december 30, 2021, 11:07:31

I installed UBUNTU 12.04, and installed Linus' last kernel (3.14) and it boot fine on my computer. I took the hard disk and put it on another computer and it didn't succeed to boot from my HD and moved to the next boot item (from lan).

Secure boot is disabled on the bios.

I also tried disabling UEFI.

What could be the problem and how can I solve it?

Found the problem and a long solution, surely there is a quicker one.

Because I installed Ubuntu with UEFI boot enabled, it matched the grub - meaning it used grub EFI.

I disabled it (UEFI boot), and reinstalled and it used grub-pc and it worked fine afterwards!
