Great! It'd be pretty nice if we could come up with an installable
app that will just do the "Copy from Flash to SD and re-configure to
boot from SD" process for an end user. I'd find it quite useful - as
a matter of fact I prefer to have my entire system

You may be right, although on a typical Debian system, I tend to trust
cp -a... Now, it may be a busybox version, with other b
you better off using cpio or rsync imho for copying filesystems entirely
since they know more about devices/pipes/etc

i'd think the only thing to care about would be /var/.

Hi.
I thought of moving my currently running (quite fine alhough the usual

that I could flash the new 2008.8 image and run it from flash (it

Would you recommend a good procedure fo
