Database issue

Bugzilla from adam@akpetty.com
I replaced the hard drive that held my images to a larger drive, I named the new volume the same as the old volume

When I restarted digikam, none of the folders or images were there.

It was an NTFS file system and it is now EXT4. I made a backup of the DB before I did the switch.

What should I do to save all the tags I made? Some of them were not saved to the files themselves and I would like to get them from the original database

First make sure you are running 1.0-rc1 and not 0.10.0 or one of the older
beta versions.
You should get a dialog when starting then, and hopefully the new volume will
be offered as new location. If not, please give me the output of
"solid-hardware list details"
