Save the SD card
#1
Hi evreyone,

Usually i am doing a copy of my SD card with Win32 Disk Imager.
It si quite simple :
- i save a .img file
- the when i want a second SD card (in case) or to burn my current SD card beacause a bad power cut for example, i just write the .img file.
It s working very well, but as i have a 16Go SD, it' long to process and i spend space on my server.

So instead of sepnding 16Go (the files of the distrib is only around 1Go) i tried to simply copy the files of my current SD to a second one.
But it's not working, RPI launch a new install of OP from scratch with those files.

What is your process ?
