Grub informations present into source disk not copyed

[fabritrento]

if i clone a pc with grub 2.0.x and dualboot winxp + xubuntu after image deployment the system is unable to boot.

the only way to boot is boot with a livecd and do these commands:

sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev
sudo mount -o bind /proc /mnt/proc
sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys
sudo chroot /mnt
update-grub
grub-install /dev/sda

i added a entry of a ubuntu remix cd image into advenced fog boot menu to boot more fast than insert every time a livecd into cd-reader.

is possible to execute commands automatically after a image deployment that contain grub?

How do you know this?

Linux OS’s are the only ones that we have, as far as I can tell, that use the grub restoration mechanisms. We tested, fairly heavily, on the multiboot capabilities as well as linux only and windows only systems. At what point is the failure occurring?

Though I will admit, I don’t know if we tested XP/2000 OSID type.
