Xbian-copier not working....

[Skywatch]

So I still have this issue on my pi2 installs.....

Here is what I have done......

Terminal

xbian@cinema2film /mnt $ df -h

root@cinema2film ~ # ^C
root@cinema2film ~ # sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt
root@cinema2film ~ # sudo reboot

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..... ???
