update: if you are using Raspbian Pi OS, the SD copier works flawlessly!
I play around with my RPI a lot, but always end up with /root on an SSD.
super performance!
ROOT on an SSD rocks.
sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 -L root sudo mkdir /media/newdrive sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/newdrive sudo rsync -avx --progress / /media/newdrive sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt
Then into the cmdline.txt put
root=/dev_/sda1 rootfs_type=ext4 root_wait
(remove the _’s before pasting.)
Doesn’t really matter if raspbian (what i’m using now) is using PARTUID, just replace it for /dev/sdaX
