AdvFS / backup boot problem

Problem: failing dsk0 in a DS10, Tru64 5.1A.

I labeled a new disk with disklabel -wr -t advfs, set
the partitions, and restored the vdump savesets to the
correct partitons on the new disk. Then I disconnected
the old disk, set the new disks SCSI ID and booted.

The system starts to boot, but after "junmping to
bootstrap code" it hangs with "root partition block
size must be 8192, can't open osf_boot"

What did I do wrong?
