rpi-clone messes up partition table

[vyruz1986]

I've tried running rpi-clone with several SDcards and readers but am always getting the same result: a corrupt partition table.
This is the output of the script:
[root@rpi-01 rpi-clone]# rpi-clone -f sda

*** Forcing a partition initialization of destination 'sda' ***
The existing partitions on destination disk 'sda' are:
Model: SanDisk SDDR-113 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 7948MB
Partition Table: msdos
Disk Flags:

Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 4.19MB 7946MB 7941MB primary fat32

This script can initialize the destination disk with a partition
structure copied from the currently booted filesytem and then resize
partition 2 (the root filesystem) to use all space on the SD card.
Do you want to initialize the destination /dev/sda? (yes/no): y

Do you really want to quit? mke2fs 1.42.8 (20-Jun-2013)

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?

/dev/sda is initialized and resized. Its partitions are:

Thansk for any help you could offer!

I'm getting the exact same error and situation. Has there been any progress made?

Same here with version 2.
