Which system do you use? Android, Ubuntu, OOWOW or others?

Ubuntu

Which version of system do you use? Khadas official images, self built images, or others?

Khadas official images

Please describe your issue below:

Would like to experiment with another OS and seems like some won’t boot off USB (i.e. openFyde) so looking to see how I can backup my Ubuntu OS I have tediously setup and restore when needed.

Post a console log of your issue below:

@nmajin you can connect a hard disk or thumbdrive with capacity larger than your Edge2’s storage capacity, then using this option 3 in oowow you can dump a copy of the disk storage into the external device

image

To put your old image back to the eMMC, connect the external device again, and you can use the option 2 to rewrite the image back into the storage.

Cheers

Thank you, I was messing with this right after I published this and should have checked in the Advanced settings first. I was able to get the backup on a USB disk. I haven’t restored it yet, hopefully it works when the time comes though :slight_smile:
