I suppose it is.. so I'd go looking for how to > change the UUID for one of the usb drives. If you copy a whole file system (e.g. with dd), the UUID will travel with it. It's just data, after all. Sometimes you want it, sometimes not. If you then modify one file system's content, you'll get two file systems with the same UUID and... with different data =:-o The horrors :) Remember: the second "U" in "UUID" is a lie ;-) Cheers -- t
