So, I’m trying to clone an SSD to an NVME drive and I’m bumping into this “dev-disk-by” error when I boot from the NVME (the SSD is unplugged).

I can’t find anyone talking about this in this context. It seems like what I’ve done here should be fine and should work, but there’s clearly something I and the arch wiki are missing.

    Very interesting. I wasn’t finding anywhere what the device ID was. Everything was looking like it was copied over from where I was (at least noticing).

    Clonezilla seems to have taken care of the necessary updates so if you do this again I’d recommend just using that. I hate that it’s yet another special ISO tool to keep around on a USB thumb drive, but if I’d used that from the start several hours of my life would’ve been saved 😅
