Hi, Theodore, Thanks for your tests. But I got the problem and got it FIXED by
flushing out the contents of /etc/blkid.tab before cloned clients reboot. I'm using the e2fsprogs-1.34-1 comes with Fedora Core 1. hello06.alexa.com root 135% rpm -qf /sbin/fsck e2fsprogs-1.34-1 hello06.alexa.com root 136% and the original contents in /etc/blkid.tab are attaching below, while
my cloned machine is in fact, a PATA IDE machine. All the /dev/sd* should be
/dev/hd* instead. Thanks. hello06.alexa.com root 168% cat blkid.tab <device DEVNO="0x0806" TIME="1079722753"

In the test below, I corrupt /etc/blkid.tab by swapping /dev/hda and /dev/hdc. This might correspond with might happen after disks get switched around. I run fsck in debugging mode to make sure it gets the correct devices, despite the corrupted /etc/blkid.tab file. As you can see, it works fine: # sed -e 's/hda/hdz/g' -e 's/hdc/hda/g' -e 's/hdz/hdc/' -e
's/0x03/0xf3/' -e s'/0x16/0x03/' -e 's/0xf3/0x16/' /etc/blkid.tab >
