Trying to write the image of the original Samsung card to another one didn't succeed since the size of the card was a few Mb's smaller.

After skipping a bunch of Linux based solutions, I came across the advice to use a Windows tool, HDDRawCopy. It did generate an error after writing 99%, but nevertheless the 2nd card booted fine and writing to the card works as well, the same for Xbian updating to Krypton.

That could be dangerous, because last partition (usually the swap partition) may not fit completely to the sd-card. Probably would be good idea to delete swap partition and create a new one

Quote:None of the suggested 'remove write-lock' tricks for micro SD-cards worked, so I have called for a RMA. Although with low prices nowadays it is almost a waste of spending a post stamp on returning the card.

Fully agree
