I never had a use for a micro SD card until I got a Raspberry Pi, so I picked up a couple small 8GB cards. I installed Q4OS to one of my cards. Since I really like Q4OS I picked up a bigger micro SD and decided to move over to that card.
I borrowed my wife's Macbook Pro and used a couple card readers to access the cards.
I ran in the terminal "sudo dd if=/dev/disk3 of=/dev/disk2 conv=notrunc". This should do an exact copy of the disk and I figured I could use cfdisk or gparted to expand the partition later to use the entire capacity of the new card. From what I can tell looking at the copy evernything copied over correctly.
When I install the new card in the raspberry pi, it begins a normal boot and then errors out with a message that it can not find the kernel. I can not figure out why this proceedure is not working. If any one has any suggestions I would appreciate a pointer to a solution.
thanks
