So the disk internal sector size will prevent cloning of any old drive for use on a new drive?? Damn, I've got more reading to do. Surely some of the tools take this into account. Bummer -- I really, really didn't want to spend 3 days tweaking a new install.
What about using ibs=512 obs=4096? Will that cause the desired 512 read and 4096 write, or will there be alignment issues attempting to copy from 512 and write 4096? And as Berny suggested could iflags or oflags set to fullblock help? I'll do additional reading and drop a note back, but if anyone knows or has a link, feel free to share :) -- David C.
