PINE A64 SBC: Clone of a functional 32GB SD card doesn't boot
#1
I have a Pine64 from the original Kickstarter (2016.) It boots from a 32GB SD card, which I've imaged from an Ubuntu16 Pine64 image file. 

I've created a full disk backup of this 32GB SD card using AOMEI Backupper, and then restored the entire disk to a new 64GB SD card. The restore is successful, and the disk looks OK, but the 64GB card won't boot. Putting it in the Pine64 and powering on simply remains at a black screen (the original SD boots as soon as I plug the Pine64 in. I don't have to press a "Start" button or anything.) 

I have also tried this with a 256 SD card, with the same results. 

I have tried copying the entire 32GB SD card with DD in linux, and restoring via DD. Same problem. 

What am I missing. Does the new disk have to have a boot sector activated or something?

I absolutely can't see the difference (see image for full details about the drive and copy)...
