>  After compiling and debugging fsck, which calls blkid* functions, I realized that the partitions images are created on a SATA host, so then when the images are cloned to a PATA hosts, the /etc/blkid.tab should be cleared off, otherwise the first fsck on the first entry with "LABEL=*"  in the /etc/blkid.tab will fail. Second run of fsck reports OK since the new local hard disk partitions|labels are populated into the file /etc/blkid.tab during the first run. That's why.

Time will end all my troubles, but I don't always approve of Time's methods.
