I want to install everything on a 240gb sdd, and use it via usb. Could I get in trouble for doing this? Do I need to change any settings for it to work? |

You will need to set the pi (Is it a pi 4?) to boot from the ssd. Allsky doesn't care if its an ssd or sd card as it just sees a disk. There are no settings in Allsky that need to be changed Before I upgraded to the pi 5 I had a pi4 with a USB drive running for a long time without any issues. Alex |

Hello, is it possible to keep the OS on a SD card, but to have Allsky on a SSD (or at least the image folders and the tmp folder)? |

Yes, but it would need manually setting up. Why not just run the OS and Allsky from the ssd? Alex |

yes that's probably easier. But how do I keep the configurations and settings from the current Allsky (and websites)? Do I move the Allsky directory on the SD card to a directory Allsky_old on the SSD? |

@ova103, if you move the Otherwise you need to reinstall Allsky so it can save the new location. |
