I recently went to make a backup of my 2GB SD card used as the Debian file
system for my TS-7260.

dd if=/dev/sdb of=backupfile.dd bs=2048

The resulting file was 1977614336 bytes.  I then attempted to write this image
to a new 2GB SD card.

dd if=backupfile.dd of=/dev/sdb bs=2048

I received the following error:
dd: writing to `/dev/sdb': No space left on device
3842049+0 records in
3842048+0 records out
1967128576 bytes (2.0 GB) copied, 1950.22 s, 1.0 MB/s

Why wouldn't the image fit on a new SD card if it could fit on the one I copied
it from?
