When dealing with GPT partitions, you might want to consider using `sgdisk`
instead. It features -G|--randomize-guids and will be able to clone a GPT
table from one drive to another in one go, without you having to iron out
UUID-related problems that "naive" cloning (which I believe `sfdisk` will
perform) will introduce.
Hth!
