      This isn’t really trouble shooting …

      I am building a MM (hardware) in my ‘shop’. I am also building a MM window (software). The software angle involves tinkering with placement, css files, look and feel, adding new modules. Finding that the new modules don’t really work. Finding that modules that did work have stopped working … aaaaGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

      I feel as if I need a Prod version and a Dev (or test) version. Short of buying a completely new Pi … what is the easiest way of doing this?

        @ruff-hi just flat out run a copy of MM on a machine that either runs windows or unbuntu.

              Thanks all. I was thinking of cloning a memory card … but if duplicating the folder works then I can use that in the short term.
