cannot boot into Debian after transferring hard drive to another desktop computer

Hello Friends!

Desktop Computer One has a hard drive that is multiboot:  Windows 7,
Debian, and another linux operating system which I will call linux-x.

It seems that the MOTHERBOARD of Desktop Computer One has finally given out
(wild guess only, as even a linux live USB can't function properly).  I
took out the multiboot hard drive and put it in another desktop computer
which I call Desktop Computer Two.

Now I can boot into linux-x just fine with Desktop Computer Two.  I'm using
linux-x to type and send this email.  I have not tried the windows 7 yet.

However I cannot boot into Debian (I believe it is Debian 10).  I get this
message:

-----------------
You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view
system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, "systemctl default" or "exit"
to boot into default mode.

Cannot open access to console, the root account is locked.
See sulogin(8) man page for more details.

Press Enter to continue.
-------------------

If I press enter, I reach the Debian logo with the circling animation but
after a while I get the above message again.

If it matters, the UUID of both / and /home partitions of the Debian system
remain the same; I compared the info provided by Gparted and the /etc/fstab
in the Debian system.

Thank you for your time.
