[rescue] SCSI2SD on sparc10

I'm beginning to run into problems with having forgotten how or why I 
did something.

I've been running a SPARC10 on a microsd card in a SCSI2SD adapter which 
fits where one of the discs went in the SS10 using a sled I 3d printed.  
It has worked wonderfully well for years.  I back up the partitions I 
use on it to an NAS, and occasionally to my exabyte drive. It has four 
file systems, each 2GB, but I only use 2; the others have different 
versions of the ghostprint routines I concocted to use the SS10 and my 
SPARCprinter 1 to print serve.  I've forgotten where I got with this but 
one of them works.

It occurs to me that I might clone the micro-sd to another micro-sd and 
tape the second one some-place inside the SS10 cabinet in case I ever 
need it.

I have a tower-pc running Ubuntu which has a micro-sd socket and can 
accept a dongle which also has a micro-sd socket.  Soooo, my thought was 
to use dd to clone it.

I'm pretty sure I can do this, but thought I'd ask if anyone could see 
something crazy in this scheme?
