Is better, thank you, but it’s also quite strange the “network interface name”, because… if the installation is on the same hardware. And maybe I won’t select the option for skipping the network
IMVHO, I’d run the restore following these steps
- full backup the older disk
- Install the newer/bigger disk, completely empty
- Install 7.9 into the newer/bigger disk
- ignore completely the network configuration and the restore, keep the server into DHCP configuration currently (unless the red or the green interfaces need a static IP address), otherwhise, ensure to realize a network configuration that allows you to connect to internet and connect via TCP from other computer for uploading the first configuration backup (not yet)
- run
yum updatefrom the console. If a new kernel came down, don’t change network configuration and reboot - upload your config backup, than restore it completely
- once restored the configuration, you should have your backup configuration available. Therefore, from cockpit, you should be able to start full data restore
- once data has been restored, a reboot may be necessary…
Anyway…
I changed the hard drive from 500GB to 1TB on my test server, few years ago, this is my experience.
hoping that this “other” way may help you someway…
You may need two more ISOs and a way to boot from them. I use Ventoy…(but don’t use it for NethServer!!! )
