Hi Adrian,
Indeed this is working. ( Test it with 2 identical USB-keys)
But I think this is not a solution because the target usb is not the
same size and make.
Thats why I copied the files and the MBR separately.( forgot to mention
this )
What I am trying to do: I would like to make a copy of my USB-key to one
or more files,
send the files to a friend and he has to dd / copy this file to his
USB-Key, and I was hoping this should work.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I am trying to clone a bootable USB key B ( FAT32)
I format USB key C and set the boot flag.
Copied all files from USB-B to USB-C in Windows.
Copied the MBR: dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc bs=446 count =1
When I boot from USB-B I get only the word GRUB in the left upper corner.
I noticed: USB-B has an icon in the browser , USB-C has not.
What could be wrong ? Thanks.
The MBR and grub are working but Grub does not know the sector
location of the kernel, So it does not continue to boot.
Use dd to copy the entire thing, it will work.
dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc
