Pixou 0 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Dear all, My problem: I've tried to Copy my current micro sd card(8go) to another one (32go) Copy with a virtualbox (Ubuntu with the dd command to Copy the first card to the other one) , or with gparted (Copy and past) But with all these methods the problem stay the same = no boot Error message: Gave up waiting for root file system device. Common problems - Boot args (cat proc/cnd.no) - Check rootdelay (did the system wait long enough?) - Missing modules (cat proc/modules: Is /dev) ALERT UUID-16bb1d19-3ee3-119r-Be32-9920fr7d190a does not exist. Dropping to a shell! (initramfs) I'm not an expert with Linux so I don't know how can I resolve this problem. Can you help me ? Thx in advance Board: Cubox-i, Hummingboard / Gate & Edge 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You have to have matching partition UUIDs in both /boot/armbianEnv.txt and /etc/fstab. To figure out what should be the UUID, check output of "blkid" command. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pixou 0 Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 Yes i'm sure I've checked the cloned SDcard(the original SDcard is on my cubox). The uuid is the same as the original SDcard 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zet_lab 1 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Faced a similar problem, did someone solve it? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heisath 44 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I have no idea why dd would not work, but as a workaround you could: use Win32Diskimager to create an *.img file from your old sd card. Than use Win32DiskImager or Etcher to burn that file to the new sd card. Worked good for me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
