Raspberry Pi5 - NVMe M2 Boot (Pineberry Pi HatDrive!)

You can update, no need to do a new installation

I just did an update and works fine so far…

Ok… Everything was great until it wasn’t. the update installed No probelm. I was running 3.779, then I started adding my plugins.

  1. Radio Paradise… Perfect
  2. Touchscreen…Perfect
  3. Basic peppy meter…Perfect
  4. Now playing… Disaster
  5. I can no longer reach the device. Can’t talk to it at all. How do I recover from this?? Will I have to redo the whole nvme procedure to get my system back?
  6. I put an sd card in the rpi5 with a fresh 3.7779 and i can boot to volumio.
  7. I have totally forgotten how to get it copied to the nvme so that it will boot from there. I have gone many threads, but cant find those instructions…Help pleas

I think this is typo. Current release is 3.779,

In the Volumio UI → System → Install to Disk NVMe:

Kind Regards,

Thank-you. quick question. Can I take my fresh copy of volumio (3.779) add all my plugins . Make sure all is working, and then do the install?

Hey @jocoman,

The function does fresh install only. We do not offer “transfer my current MicroSD to disk”.

Kind Regards,

Thank-you. BTW My large internal music library is gone. How do I recover? I can filezilla in there but I forget where to put all those music files . under the home directory I only see volumio and under that .config, .gnupg, ssh .thank-you
seems to me there was something called internal…

Hey @jocoman,

You know, that your Volumio device will be visible via standard SMB network - right? Like every other PC.

When using sftp there are number of steps which need to be completed, or you music library will go haywire.

Kind Regards,

OK.Thanks so much. You have been very helpful.
