Hello Robert, many thanks for your hints. My linux-box is an open-suse system kernel 3.11.6-4 running inside an Oracle VM 4.3.6. I investigated this UUID-topic more careful but ended up even more confused. As I cloned the cards using dd I expected them to be identical in every bit (aside the cards' different sizes that should not affect partitions cloned by dd). And in deed - for both cards I get the following identical output:
# ls -lh /dev/disk/by-id/usb* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 4. Jan 17:52 /dev/disk/by-id/usb- Mass_Storage_Device_125C20100726-0:0 -> ../../sdb lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 4. Jan 17:52 /dev/disk/by-id/usb- Mass_Storage_Device_125C20100726-0:0-part1 -> ../../sdb1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 4. Jan 17:52 /dev/disk/by-id/usb- Mass_Storage_Device_125C20100726-0:0-part2 -> ../../sdb2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 4. Jan 17:52 /dev/disk/by-id/usb- Mass_Storage_Device_125C20100726-0:0-part3 -> ../../sdb3 # blkid /dev/sda1 /dev/sda1: UUID="1a741a3f-1d6e-49f7-958b-a83e9ac4107f" TYPE="swap" # blkid /dev/sda2 /dev/sda2: UUID="a8748c5a-2bfa-4f9a-ac4f-b0c314ded6eb" TYPE="ext4" PTTYPE= "dos" # blkid /dev/sda3 /dev/sda3: UUID="5a41fb0b-d553-4f35-abdf-26a0210b4826" TYPE="ext4" It seems that the UUID is preserved by dd but still the second (cloned) card does not boot. Is there any other reason for not booting the clone you could imagine?
