Greetings all; All i/o options in piclone are ghosted. The help says it wants a blank sd card. How it this accomplished if piclone has attempted to use it previously and it contains week old non-precious data? Is it sufficient to wipe out the GPT partition table with dd using 20k worth of /dev/zero? I'm concerned that might wipe out the card totally.
I have no reason to believe that dd can damage a card. -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues]
