cloning user data from jessie to stretch #57

Open philgithub1 opened 6 years ago

philgithub1 commented 6 years ago

i have an rpi3 that has been thru the typical extensive user customizing, SSH keys, openvpn configs, no pi user, custom user, etc. running jessie noobs

I just got an rpi3+ that needs stretch. Because of noobs I can not easily dd clone and update to stretch. Can I use this to clone all my user setup and files to a new stretch. Or maybe I should ask will this clone the raspbian jessie only without noobs, in this case I would have no problem doing that and updating jessie to stretch.
