No, you clearly described your situation. It was me who mangled it. I
think what I wanted to say was the UUID of the partition in grub.cfg
would not be the same as before the cloning, so the file needs editing.
blkid would be used to get the new UUID. Alternatively, deleting the
search line and having the linux line as
linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2
might work.
