No, you should be able to copy from one SD card to another. There's nothing board-specific on the card.
I'd suggest you remove the known-good card, put it in a card reader and dd an image to your HDD: dd if=/dev/sdX of=my_backup_image.bin bs=1M Then, once that'd done, remove the card, insert the busted one and reimage it: dd if=my_backup_image.bin of=/dev/sdX bs=1M Jason On 10 Nov 2012, at 18:54, Louis P.
