Hi Steven, The posting was pointing out that on the clonee box (being cloned) my OS sees a hda and sda while when I boot to clonezilla, both flash and sata disks are being seen as sda and sdb. Per your recommendation and usage of blkid(1) and sda (a flash drive for /boot and / ) and sdb for other stuff. # blkid -p /dev/sda /dev/sda PTTYPE="dos" # blkid -p /dev/sda1 # echo $? 2 # blkid -p -u filesystem /dev/sda2 # echo $? 2 So mount(1) fails and blkid(1) is failing....is there any options for blkid to debug further...
