Hello
I have a Nuc with a SSD Samsung 1To QVO with OS = Debian 12 (pure Debian 12 Not Raspi OS)
I would like to clone this SSD on other SSD external (same disk SSD Samsung 1To QVo) via USB 3.0
My but is if the SSD actually used crash so I invert the two SSD
Does it possible to install and use rpi-clone on Debian 12 (pure Debian 12 not RaspiOS.....)
Thanks at all
Hi @titou4307!
You want to do a exact clone of the internal SSD to and identical external SSD plugged via USB 3.0?
Question: If the internal SSD crash, do you want to boot from external SSD, or you intent to swap the drives, and then boot from the new internal SSD?
I ask that because then you need to take a look in your BIOS boot device priority, in case of the crash.
Another think to take a look:
When you run the rpi-clone with default arguments, they will update /etc/fstab and boot partition location. If you use UUID to identify your disk, then you should be fine in most cases.
Answering your question, yes it is possible. Used rpi-clone in an old notebook and it did worked.
Hello
Thanks for your response....

Yes it I want to do....
Question: If the internal SSD crash, do you want to boot from external SSD, or you intent to swap the drives, and then boot from the new internal SSD?
In case of crash so I will stop the machine and swap the two SSD (I put the SSD connected in USB 3.0 into the Nuc...and the SSD crashed goes out the Nuc....
I ask that because then you need to take a look in your BIOS boot device priority, in case of the crash.
After swap operation I think it not needeed to change the boot priority
Yes I would like to clone the SSB boot actually and before big update make and update of this clone..
I have done the same with a Pi4 under Os on SD card and with clone on Sd Card via USB 3.0 card reader
After a crash and swap it very to restart ....
Does it clear ? sorry for my poor english, I am frenchy
Understood, just a full clone. If not using the external SSD/USB no need to set device priority after the crash.
Pretty sure the same i did here with my old computer. Anyway, take a look in the fstab, if you are using UUID:
sudo cat /etc/fstab
Take a look in the example 11 from de README.md:

Hello
When I type this command (root) :
What command does I need to type to clone all the disk (SSD in the Nuc) to the SSD external ???
sys-clone sdb -v
It seem more complicated than rpi-clone ....
Hello
Here my last try....
I don't know what not work .....
