Even more, all disk-like storage devices are operated via SCSI commands
independly of the bus technology. So with USB, SATA, PATA it's all the same.
A block written to Logical Block Address X should be retrievable from that
same address, however its data are stored pysically.

It's easy to guess that /boot is the main suspect in this list.
But still no idea why a blockwise disk copy should not work when it comes
to identifying a program file as ELF format. Somehow GRUB must get to the
wrong file content.


Have a nice day :)
