Cloned drive, but can't boot due to UEFI raid config from previous dri
oof - I really struggled with that title. This was actually a W11 installation, but what I'm asking should be version-agnostic.
So I had this laptop with a 1TB NVMe drive, fully booting and functional. The drive however, was a hybrid which had 32GB optane/1TB storage and the UEFI was configured to operate in RST raid mode. Me, not thinking and being in a rush, disregarded that fact and removed the drive, then cloned it to a replacement 2TB NVMe drive. When I booted, I was stuck in an auto repair loop. I entered the UEFI settings, and changed from RST to AHCI. Still the problem persists, so I'm wondering what my best option is from here.
Am I out of luck, and just have to do a clean installation on the new drive?
