        Look into the slideshow configuration to see where the slideshow images are stored, default is in /home/pi/.emulationstation/slideshow/image. The settings are controlled from the ES menufrom UI Settings -> Screensaver settings -> Slideshow screensaver settings.
        Once you have the folder, copy the images from that folder from one system to another and make sure the screensaver settings are similar, so that the slideshow starts and the images are found.
