write image to more than 1 USB card reader? Anonymous 10/26/15 (Mon) 17:26:53 No.33

hey all, just a stupid question I can't answer myself. I'm not a GNU/Linux pro, more like a not-so-new noob.

I made a SD card image of a GNU/Linux system and want to write this image back to SD cards. For this I used the "drives" tool in GNU/Linux, which offers the options to make and write these images (I dunno the exact name right now, but it comes with ubuntu and kali GNU/Linux), it works like a charm (had troubles with dd before)

now, if I use more than 1 SD card reader, I can't write to all of them, just one. The SD card readers are found by GNU/Linux, also the SD cards of course, but I can only write to one, even if I try to write to another, it won't select/use the next drive.

BUT if I use the card reader of my notebook instead, I can write to the inserted card AND to the USB reader at the same time. Could it be that GNU/Linux somehow has problems if more than 1 USB card reader of the same brand is connected? Or what's the solution for this problem?

I hope you understand what I try to explain here haha
