It shouldn't.
BUT! I have _seen_ it make a difference (between a working system and
a not working system).
That doesn't mean I know what exactly causes the mismatch or how it is
causing the failure. It just means that it is possible that it works
again.
Now that I think of it, the mismatch could also be on the _beginning_
of the partition?

Sounds familiar.
Good luck!
