  1. Power on the sBitx
  2. Insert your USB storage drive into an open port on the sBitx
  3. Open the menu and select Accessories--> SD Card Copier
  4. Select the Copy From Device as the internal storage (usually /dev/mmcblk0)
  5. Select the Copy To Device: as he USB storage drive (usually /dev/sda)
  6. Press Start (this process takes a long time so be patient)
  7. When complete, remove the USB storage drive and save it for later.
