Migrate disks from a BIOS based to UEFI based Xpenology Server

[Head Scratcher]

Is there a migration path for this? 

 

I built a new bare metal UEFI based server and tested it by sticking a blank test HDD drive in, created a pool and share.  It worked perfectly.  I removed the test HDD and tired moving all the drives from a legacy (bios) bare metal installation into the new server and booted.  At this point I get a grub rescue prompt.

 

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Did you use REDPILL because of DSM7?
If REDPILL, what loader did you use?

Old Machine: TCRP 8.x (Legacy) - DS918+ 7.0.1
New Machine: TCRP 9.2.9 (UEFI) - DS3622xs+ 7.1.1

Even if your BIOS is UEFI Boot, would you like to try switching to the legacy one from the link below?

 

I have no problem using this legacy file for both UEFI/Legacy.

 

If the same phenomenon occurs with this legacy image

 

Please report any messages that appear at the top of the grub prompt.

Oops… I had inadvertently changed the boot for UFEI USB Key to USB Key in the BIOS.  
 

Thanks.

 

Resolved.
