Hi Daudi,

I have read that you have copied your USB content to a CF card, and I am interested in knowing more about that. I am a big CF fan (Unbrickable iliad and bigger size availability), and I would like to upgrade from my current SanDisk 4 GB Ultra II CF card to a bigger and faster either A-Data 32 GB CF card or 120X PQI 8 GB CF card, my question is: can i I just copy the content of my previous CF card to the new one using a "regular" PC (sorry no Mac yet...) and still have all my previously installed linux based 3rd party softwares that you and many others have genuinely made available through this forum? or will I have to go through the hustle of reinstalling all those neat softwares!?!
Thank you for your help and sorry for my ignorance...
