OK, I am a bit lost.
I have 2 copies of my partitions one on drive sda (old one) and one on sdb
the new one. I want to change my root partition to be the one on the new
drive but both must be labeled / right? Also there is no uuid for the new
partition, as best as I can tell because it is not mounted, so how do I get
the id? I could use a label / but then how would it know which one to use?
Anyway, as I said, I am lost!
Thanks for all the help so far.

sba7 is the old one

sdb6 is the new one, if that helps any.

Thanks all!
