I agree on labels, they are far more readable. But I'm starting to think that duplicating partitions like this is asking for trouble. I think it would be better to create the partitions and filesystems you want on the new disk, then mount both and copy everything over with rsync. That was you won't get any conflicting UUIDs and you can set filesystem or partition labels as you see fit. -- Neil Bothwick First Law of Laboratory Work: Hot glass looks exactly the same as cold glass.
