I've gone through the install and after running rpi-clone sda it does it's transfers and looks like it's successful but it doesn't boot. It gives an error

`Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems:

  • Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
    • Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
  • Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
    ALERT! PARTUUID= d2a8e92e-02 does not exist. Dropping to shell!`

I've tried two different usb drives. A Centon and a kingston a400. Both give the same error. I also now can't boot off the original SD card as it gives the same error as well.

Ok, I was able to get one of my pi4s working using the fork but the other is still giving the error. I deleted the rpi-clone directory and redid the steps using https://github.com/framps/rpi-clone.git. It goes through like normal but I get the same error when I restart the pi using just the usb drive. I'm not sure if there is a more thorough way of removing the previous rpi-clone.

rpi-clone misses a debug log 😢

If the backup doesn't boot usually it's because UUIDs were not updated for whatever reason. Try syncUUIDs which will check whether the UUIDs are OK. If not use option -u to fix the incorrect UUIDs.

Try [syncUUIDs](https://github.com/framps/raspberryTools/blob/master/syncUUIDs.sh) which will check whether the UUIDs are OK. If not use option `-u` to fix the incorrect UUIDs.

I've tried the -u and that ran through but same results. I tried the script but I'm not sure if I am running it write. I moved it over to the pi and ran it using ./syncUUIDs.sh. It gives me 'missing device to update UUIDs.'. I tried taking the drive a doing a fresh reformat on my windows machine and rerunning it, same results though now I'm back to not being able to boot at all with the SD card.

That's bad but given the fact there is no debug log available in rpi-clone there is no way to help you - at least from my side.
