Thanks, Wol, especially for the hint with the GUIDs, will keep this in mind.
If ever using it again - maybe in case of a quick temporary replacement in
the original computer - I will wipe it with zeros before.
The partition layout will be cloned using sfdisk.
When dealing with GPT partitions, you might want to consider using `sgdisk`
instead. It features -G|--randomize-guids and will be able to clone a GPT
table from one drive to another in one go, without you having to iron out
UUID-related problems that "naive" cloning (which I believe `sfdisk` will
perform) will introduce.
Hth!
This also found its way in my private wiki, thanks!
