Evening all,
I thought it would be a Good Idea to "improve" my Fedora system if I added an SDD. I put it in, plugged it in & it seemed to work - sort of....
What I now have is a selection window from grub which has 2 new versions of F25 Workstation (on sda), then an F19, also on sda, followed by the F25 on sdb (my SDD).
What I would like to do is to remove the 2 new F25s because the one was only stated to allow me to boot the system; remove the F19 & put F25 on sdb as the default. I hope that doing something like this would mean that (system) updates would be applied to the SDD F25, and that I would be able to access all the software I have on /home......
Does anyone have any ideas how I might be able to do this???
Would I need to change any of my SATA cables to make sdb into sda???
Many thanks for any suggestions!!!!!
Dave

You really need to include some more details. Plugging in an SSD isn't going to automatically create a new F25 boot option, so go over the steps you took and what you want the result to be.

Yes, you will need to swap where the SATA cables are plugged into the motherboard.
