Your description is a bit confusing  :-?   most important: md1 (or mdx) is an MD-DEVICE ! (raid device _not_ IDE)
BUT LET'S GUESS (with experience):

YOUR BOOT DEVICE changed to your new drive and after your install there is just "/boot" but no "/"  or root...
...if I am not totaly wrong your Bios is now trying to boot from sda1 ...whereas you have the system still on HDA  (only)
1. Unplug the SATA cable and SME should work as before (again)...
then tell your BIOS TO 1st BOOT FROM HDA (Master IDE0)
2. ...if things are incorrect for sda but the SME is running on 1
 -> follow the above (correct) link for a 2nd time  :-D

Regards
Reinhold
...hoping not to be to confusing in the above simple explanation  :D
