Default problem - moved SLED10 installation to another hard disc

hello,

i moved my pretty well working SLED10 installation to another new notebook hard disc (size upgrade, before Seagate 100GB to Western Digital 320GB) via Acronis partition moving tool.
I copied the old partitions completely to the new hard disc. this worked well. 4 partitions moved properly. Afterwards booting the new WD with Grub starts up well, but when choosing to boot SLED10 after a few seconds i got a blank screen telling me:

<<waiting for /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST910021AS_3MH0FPJ8-part7 to appear : ... not found ..>>

obviously it is searching for the old Seagate hard disc to boot from... so i changed via ubuntu live dvd the /etc/fstab file to match the new hard disc partitions that i found in /dev/disk/by-id/ .

but it did not help, nothing changed the same message appears... it is still the same problem and does not start from the new hard disc. can anybody tell me how to get it running again with the new WD disc?

this is my new /etc/fstab:

/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD3200BEVT-_WD-WXE408AY2590-part7 / reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD3200BEVT-_WD-WXE408AY2590-part1 /windows/C ntfs ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD3200BEVT-_WD-WXE408AY2590-part5 /windows/D ntfs ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD3200BEVT-_WD-WXE408AY2590-part6 swap swap defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0

this was the old /etc/fstab:

/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST910021AS_3MH0FPJ8-part7 / reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST910021AS_3MH0FPJ8-part1 /windows/C ntfs ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST910021AS_3MH0FPJ8-part5 /windows/D ntfs ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST910021AS_3MH0FPJ8-part6 swap swap defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0

(Windows is booting well by the way)

thank you

T. Jenkner
