Later in the show, we’re bringing back a fan favorite segment. That’s right. Jill is going to pull out another gem from her computer vault in Jill’s Treasure Hunt. Plus we’ve also got our famous tips, tricks and software picks. All of this and so much more this week on Destination Linux. So whether you’re brand new to Linux and open source or a guru of sudo.

• 01:00:55 = Outro

• There are many ways to accomplish a full SD card backup image but we’re going to show you one of the easiest:
  • First take the SD card out of your Pi
  • Before you insert your SD card into your PC run the command:
    • df
    • or you can use sudo fdisk -l
  • This command will list out all your current drives.
  • Next insert the SD card from the Pi and run the ‘df’ command once more.
• Now you’ll be able to see the drive path assigned to the SD card ex: /dev/mmcblk01 and 02.
  • TIP: if you don’t see any changes interact with the drive in your file manager and then run the command again in the terminal
• Finally, run this command:
  • sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=MyPi.img
  • replacing the /dev/mmcblk0 with the path your PC assigned your SD card.
  • Note we didn’t designate the 1 or 2 on the end we just wrote the path up to the mmcblk0.
• That’s it. Now you’ve made a complete backup image of your SD card that you can restore to another SD card in case of corruption or loss.
