OK, one problem solved, one to go! :)

Now, the fsck after the whole image has been copied works fine (this 
is the problem solved). However, when I boot from the copied image, 
I get the following boot msgs:

may cause SEVERE file system damage.

Do you really want to continue (y/n)?



Now, the question is: why do I get this msg during boot, and what can I 
do to solve it??

Thanks your help so far!!

Later,
Ivan
