Re: Trying to make a sd card clone without taking the sd card out of the GBZ

So, method you guys told me definitely works. The micro sd addapter was getting the information, but it takes to much time and I dont have the patient to leave my GBZ pluged in more than four hours when I touch it and feel that is overheating :roll:
after the command dd with the 1M took forever as well, I guess this method would work for someone with a smaller micro SD cart... I tried making an image of the micro SD cart after 4 hours of leaving the pi doing it thing and it didnt boot.
So the method works but I wouldnt recommend it for some one with a micro sd bigger than 8G (please correct me on the comments if I am wrong).
So I ordered a ribbon cable and i will make some modifications to my case in order to reach the micro sd card without having to open the case.

Thank you very much for your help guys!
