So, I'm trying to clone an SSD to an NVME drive and I'm bumping into this "dev-disk-by" error when I boot from the NVME (the SSD is unplugged).

I can't find anyone talking about this in this context. It seems like what I've done here should be fine and should work, but there's clearly something I and the arch wiki are missing.

They're identical to what they were in the original drive, I've verified it in gparted on a live image.

It's driving me crazy because I can literally find this drive by that UUID in a live image, but when I go to boot the system has no idea what that is.
