*AS I WAS WRITING THE MSG BELOW, I GOT IT WORKING Smilie!!!

The Image I'm using for the Operating System is OpenSuSE 13.1 XFCE.
HERE: http://files.jm0.eu/suse/openSUSE-13...ild68.2.raw.xz

I made a mistake in the messages that I see during the boot up process... I found my notes from last week and this is what I tried.

Clone Command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/mmcblk0 conv=sync,noerror bs=64K

I'm not sure what mmcblk0 even is. If it's a partition, rather than a disk, that'll be wrong.

There's no reason you need to do the cloning on the device itself. I'd just plug the cards into an ordinary computer running linux, and dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/sdd bs=64K or what have you. fdisk -l to verify which are which and all that.

NAME
csx_Parse_CISTPL_DEVICEGEO - parse the Device Geo tuple SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/pccard.h> int32_t csx_Parse_CISTPL_DEVICEGEO(client_handle_t ch, tuple_t *tp, cistpl_devicegeo_t *pt); INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI) PARAMETERS
ch Client handle returned from csx_RegisterClient(9F). tp Pointer to a tuple_t structure (see tuple(9S)) returned by a call to csx_GetFirstTuple(9F) or csx_GetNextTuple(9F). pt Pointer to a cistpl_devicegeo_t structure which contains the parsed Device Geo tuple information upon return from this function. DESCRIPTION
This function parses the Device Geo tuple, CISTPL_DEVICEGEO, into a form usable by PC Card drivers. The CISTPL_DEVICEGEO tuple describes the device geometry of common memory partitions. STRUCTURE MEMBERS
The structure members of cistpl_devicegeo_t are: uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].bus; uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].ebs; uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].rbs; uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].wbs; uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].part; uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].hwil; The fields are defined as follows: info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].bus This field indicates the card interface width in bytes for the given partition. info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].ebs This field indicates the minimum erase block size for the given partition. info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].rbs This field indicates the minimum read block size for the given partition. info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].wbs This field indicates the minimum write block size for the given partition. info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].part This field indicates the segment partition subdivisions for the given partition. info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].hwil This field indicates the hardware interleave RETURN VALUES
CS_SUCCESS Successful operation. CS_BAD_HANDLE Client handle is invalid. CS_UNKNOWN_TUPLE Parser does not know how to parse tuple. CS_NO_CARD No PC Card in socket. CS_NO_CIS No Card Information Structure (CIS) on PC Card. CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION No PCMCIA hardware installed. CONTEXT
This function may be called from user or kernel context. SEE ALSO
