Cloning USB drive

Doesn't work because of multiple partitions on source usb:

This one works:

Need to use a linux PC.

fdisk -l

/dev/sda

this is your hard disk

Insert source usb

fdisk -l

/dev/sdb1
/dev/sdb2

Insert destination disk:

fdisk -l

/dev/sdc

Then, do:

dd if = /dev/sdb  of=/dev/sdc  bs=4096 conv=noerror
