Kernel panic after restore

Brand new disk in my 15" MBP. Booted from my Leopard install disk and followed "Recovering from a disaster" directions from SuperDuper! manual (pp. 27-8). Restored from a sparse image backup of the machine made earlier today.

Restore and verify claimed to have worked, and I can see it in Disk Utility and select it as a startup drive, but when I try to boot from it I get

Panic (cpu 0 caller 0x004384FF): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI\".\n@/CourceCode/xnu/xnu-1228.12.4/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp: 1407

Yes, this is a backup of this very machine so it should darn well be the correct version.

One thing I noticed is that the new disk volume if called "macbookpro backup" (after the backup) rather than Macintosh HD (which is what the original was called). Can I change that, and might that have any effect on things?

Help!
