You should not copy the /proc directory. The files contained
in it do not really exist (but they occupy a huge amount of
space if you try to copy them).

On source computer, load *ramdisk* BL2 and copy your source
partition from there. It is best to copy a partition when
it is not currently running as root filesystem.
