Advanced users • Re: Image File Utilities

Is there some way that I could pair the '/' partition from my backup with a `/boot` from my currently-installed system?

Work on a copy of the image file (not the original).

Mount the BOOT partition of the image file with image-mount.

Copy the BOOT partition contents from a working BOOT partition to the image file.

Adjust the PARTUUID of cmdline.txt in the BOOT partition of the image file to match the PARTUUID of the ROOT partition.

Check config.txt in the BOOT partition of the image file to see if any changes are necessary there.

Restore the image file.
I've followed your instructions.
Here's the problem I'm having: It seems that BOOT has been changed.
There is still a '/boot' that is part of the root partition, but much of the "stuff" that was in the W95 '/boot' has been moved to 'boot/firmware'.
This is very confusing!
