If you used a few more full stops, I would have a better idea
what you are trying to say. Better still, include the error message
or last few lines output before the failure -- otherwise we're
just guessing and may well give you the wrong advice.

You will need to swap the SCSI IDs round, as the disk image
will be expecting to be booting on SCSI ID 0.

Or, mount the cloned disk and correct the SCSI ID in
/mountpount/etc/vfstab

Thanks andrei for your reply i don't need to install the boot block
right only change the SCSI ID in /etc/vfstab file and that's it right

To see a 2nd disk in the boot menu, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst.


At the bottom of the file add the 2nd disk with code like:

title 2nd boot disk
root(hd0,1,2)
kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot
module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive
