"dd" the block device contents moves everything including the UUID. The
partitions need to be the same size or moving to a larger one and resize.

Also set or clear using tune2fs -U UUID|clear|random|time
(http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl8_tune2fs.htm)

Plus some other stuff here http://joatha.org/help/manual/en/part-uuid-en.htm

Enjoy.
