Seems to be a USB problem with the new RPI4 - the blue USB 3.0 seem to have issues. I also had to put a hub in between my z-wave USB stick and my RPI4 - it used to work perfectly with RPI3 without a hub before. Having attached the SD Card to a 5-bucks-USB-hub from Amazon the cloning process now works.
