copying sd cards

Sun Mar 04, 2018 3:01 pm

Here's a question for y'all...

If I use the "SD Card Copier" from the accessories menu, to copy the OS microSD card onto a microSD card in a USB adapter, am I making a copy that I can swap out and boot from in an emergency? Or am I making an image file that still has to be written thru Win32DiskImager? :roll:

You're making a bootable SDCard.

Thanks, Dougie. :D
