Does any of the latter-day disk-by-id stuff affect how you prepare a cloned disk nowadays?
Not as long as both disks are not in the system at the same time as either are used to boot from or have partitions mounted by label or UUID. If the clone is to be an additional disk, then among other things you'll have duplicate UUID and/or label problems until you change UUIDs and/or labels on one of the disks. Tidying up Grub files and boot sectors on the clone may also be necessary according to what its partitions are used for. -- The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 1 Corinthians 7:3 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
