Hi everyone,


Currently I'm using 64GB sdcrad for android and I want to clone it to other sdcards.
I tried to do it with dd command in ubuntu, but every time I getting "error reading ... Input/output error".
What I want in the end is to get an image that can be written to other sdcard with different size.
I used 32 win disk imager and got a 64GB image, but I was not able to resize it..


any ideas?

thanks Smile

Clonezilla works.
There is a learning curve.
I install on a 16g sdcard and set it up the way I like it.
Create an image and burn to any drive greater than 16g.

Partimage and fsarchiver might do the same to copy the partitions. But the issue would be to install the u-boot on the new SD card.
See these notes.
