First question, is your system running from an SD card or the eMMC? If running from an SD card, just "clone" or duplicate the card using Windows or Linux tools. If its running from the eMMC (on-board storage). It'll require knowing some Linux commands. For a beginner, I'd suggest

I ought to qualify what I am saying here. To be clear this application does not appear to be looking for a spidev2.0. All said I am still not getting a change in state. I had a similar problem with GPIO's yet that went away with the latests updates, this however seems to be sticking. No change.

I am trying to get the SPI bus to work, unfortunately it will not change states. Is there something obvious that I am missing. I believe that this ties into my previous post on strace and is the reason that I cannot my LCD to work. Thanks in advance to those that respond to this post.
