09:21 <yang> Has anyone tested RPI 3B+ with a graphical WM (XFCE) ?

10:28 <Armbian-Discord> <m​oe> Hmm, so I have an armbian instance running perfectly fine. I wanted to take a image of the current SD card so if absolutely needed I could just reflash it. Any idea how I'd go about that? Don't need to take a routine backup, just a snapshot as it currently is

10:30 <Armbian-Discord> <l​anefu> Basically use dd to make an image

10:32 <Armbian-Discord> <m​oe> sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/sda of=raspbian.img that works cool thanks

10:42 <nekomancer[m]> /me use duplicati for sbc with nextcloud server. mysql base dumps daily.

10:45 <Armbian-Discord> <m​oe> that seems like a cool tool - It's perhaps a bit overkill for my application though. I just have a magic mirror that I can't be bothered to setup again haha

11:02 <Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> You might want to compress

13:03 <Armbian-Discord> <m​oe> can't imagine it being more than a few gig, not too worried about it beyond that

13:35 <Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> If you dd the card, it will be the size of the card.

13:36 <Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> If the filesystem is sane, there will be a lot of zeros, which compress well.

13:47 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> also this could be useful https://gitlab.com/bztsrc/usbimager/-/tree/master
