Workaround working nicely
Today I hope to get more done trying to get this to run from usb. I'll try what you suggested @nachteule.

@elrock
Not really
Input/Output error never sounds good.
Source fs already checked? (btrfs scrub)
Destination device ok?
Power fail issue?

What is the pathway for the source fs? I found nothing in /tmp.
The destination device is a 8gb thumb drive formatted as ext2. It gets power from the RPi. Could that be the source of the problem?

Oc not, source is / fs, so run sudo btrfs scrub start / && sudo btrfs scrub status / to check if fs is ok

So I ran the btrfs scrub and it found "11 uncorrectable errors," so no go. Is it still safe to restore from a backup of the Home directory, at least? I made a backup and it didn't encounter any errors.

Ok, so we know the reason why Xbian-copier does not work without an error.
It should be safe, but it's better to locate those 11 files. AFAIR when running a scrub, those broken files are logged and can be displayed via dmesg command

If I put "root=/dev/sda5" the pi goes into a never ending reboot loop.
If I put "root=UUID=e86f613c-8db0-4fc6-99d1-53d8e4ff0e3a" I get "sd card resize" on the main screen and that too never ends. ( have waited for 30mins + and still no end).
Where have I gone wrong? It used to work fine from usb following the instructions on the main page, but now I can't get it to boot properly..... ???

If I follow the guide on the wiki I get error message in xbian-config. I am confused as it all used to work fine - but I guess I attract this kind of thing

Maybe the scripts getting confused due to the identical labels of /dev/mmcblk0p2 and /dev/sda5 (I don't believe this, but who knows ...)
Quote:If I follow the guide on the wiki I get error message in xbian-config. I am confused as it all used to work fine - but I guess I attract this kind of thing
Hmmm, maybe the wiki lies
But, seriously, that should not be a big problem cloning root partition:
Select function 6 inside xbian-config, source /dev/root, destination /dev/sda5 and let it run. I did this many times
Should finish without any error message, but if you get error message, it's not big surprise that booting from this partition fails ...

Still, if I select /dev/sda1 to copy to I get error message. If I select /dev/sda5 it completes, but won't boot when cmdline.txt has it's root=/dev/sda5 edit.
RE: Xbian-copier not working.... - Nachteule - 12th May, 2018 09:06 PM
Oooops, strange partition table. I'm unsure that scripts can deal with that table
Partition 1 is extended Partition, you can't write data into, it's just a container for other (logical) partitions
and partition 5 has wrong partition type, should have 83 (Linux) instead of 0xc (FAT32 LBA)
I would create a new partition table and with only one primary partition. The partition layout you have absolutely makes no sense
RE: Xbian-copier not working.... - Skywatch - 13th May, 2018 02:56 AM
You see, I told you it wasn't working
I'll try again tomorrow as I had a little bit of an accident today and definitly ruined a 64Gb microSD card, maybe a pi3 as well - need to look into that urgently. Could take some time though.
Thanks for confirming that the problem was really there and not just in my head!
