Migration from CB1/RAspbian to CB2/Cubian #344

Open whheydt opened 10 years ago

At present, I have have 2 CB1s running Berryboot with Raspbian on an SSD. (These have been running for over a year now and Raspbian was the only Debian variant I saw when I set them up.)

I just got a CB2 and wanted to swap it in in place of one CB1. Since the SD card and SSD don't boot with the CB2 (they work fine with the CB1), and there is now Cubian (which one presumes will run better of the Cubieboards, being "tuned" to them), is there a straightforward way to migrate a Raspbian system to Cubian--and to support the A20 chip as part of doing so?

If I don't have this working in the next couple of works, any migration will have to wait 6 to 8 months, as the paired CBs will have critical activities on them and I will only make changes in dire circumstances.
