I tried removing the card and inserting it again, same thing. Then I could work well for 30 second to 1min and then start being slow or unresponsive. BalenaEtcher is a popular, open-source tool that makes it easy to flash an operating system image to a USB drive, SD card, or other types of removable storage. It’s super slow and sometimes the system takes 15 to 30 seconds to respond.Įven in direct SSH connection, launching the ls -l command on a directory can take me 30s to 1min. The whole save and copy process went well, but the few tests I did with the “new card” were quite disappointing. Then I used balenaEtcher to flash my second 128 card, same company, same capacity, same range with the backup I just made I used Win32 diskimager to do the backup. Indeed, I have 2 sdCard of 128go so I made a backup of my main card (the one with my system configured well that I would like to transfer to my 64go card). I finally only flashed Gparted on a usb key and I was ready to do the steps on my PC, but I was a little afraid of screwing everything up with a steps error so I did a test before using Gparted on my SdCard.

I did the “DietPi_RPi-ARMv8-Bullseye” install on July 3 with the most recent version available. balenaEtcher seems to work well, explains everything step-by-step, exists for Mac, Linux and Windows. Otherwise, as the publications that I found are rather old, I would like to know if simpler or more reliable techniques exist and or even if the new backup tool already present in DietPi would not already do the trick?įor information, I’m on Raspberry Pi 4 with 1gb with a 128gb SD card. The SD card is the hard drive of your Raspberry.

The guide ends there and I can only guess that if my SD card is 128gb it will be minimized in size and I can just use Win32Imager on my PC to make a small image of it that I can copy to my card 32gb or 64gb with Balena? (How do I scale it back to the maximum available size then?) Resize2fs -M /dev/mmcblk0p2 # minimize filesystem However, I have only seen once the solution which seems to me the simplest which can be summed up like this (I have not tried it yet):ĭietpi-services stop # better don’t have many services running in the meantime On the forum there is often a link to a script that no longer exists: I’ve been looking for a while now for the best way to make an exact copy of an installation of DietPi onto a smaller SD card.
