I have a wandboard quad, and I'd like to move the root filesystem
to a sata drive. I have the drive connected and formatted, and I copied all of
"/" to a partition on the sata drive.
For the wandboard you can actually have the entire OS on SATA. The
only thing that needs to be on a SD card is U-Boot.
So if you take a new image and DD it out to the sata device, then just
dd out the U-Boot to a mSD card it should just all boot.
> Now the question is "where do I need to change the UUID to match that of the new
partition".

> I know I need to change /etc/fstab, /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf and perhaps
/boot/grub/grub.conf, but do I also have to regenerate the initramfs images, and if so,
what command would I use so they contain the correct UUID and drivers?

because I would not be able to boot from the sata drive until I rebuilt it, but if I
rebuilt it while running from the SD card, I'd guess the rebuilt initramfs would still
reference the SD card.
