Sorry: almost: changing device to apropiate one. Tests done are:

USB1/2 referring to physical USB devices.
USB1 referring to a Tails installed with Tails Installer.

1. Boot Tails from USB1, cloned to USB2:

1.1 t-p-s with override boot device and system partition pointing to USB2:

tails-persistence-setup --force --override-boot-device
/org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdc --override-system-partition
/org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdc1 --passphrase 1234 --step bootstrap --
verbose

Fails with: org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.PermissionDenied: Not Authorized


1.2 t-p-s with override boot device and system paritition pointing to USB1: OK

tails-persistence-setup --force --override-boot-device
/org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdb --override-system-partition
/org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdb1 --passphrase 1234 --step bootstrap --
verbose

Ok (besides the passphrase asking again question).

2. Boot Tails form USB2 (the previously cloned one in test 1):
2.1 t-p-s with override boot device and system partition pointing to USB2: OK.

tails-persistence-setup --force --override-boot-device
/org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdb --override-system-partition
/org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdb1 --passphrase 1234 --step bootstrap --
verbose
