      Hello people!
      Thanks for this awesome forum and site, have been a blast to read threads in here.

      Anyway, I need some help. Have been google and google but cannot find solution to my problem. I have 64gb sdcard that I am using. Right now I am making a Retropie machine for my friend with Raspberry Pi 3. But his sdcard is 32gb, how on earth can I copy to that one? I used Win32disk but it is larger than 32gb img file.

      Cheers!

        First question, how full do you have your SD Card? The image created when you back up your SD card is always the full size of the SD card, in your case it is 64gb. Do you have the card full with roms? If your SD card has less that 32gb of data on it, you can use RPI-Clone tool found here: rpi-clone

          @tmntturtlguy I have around 25-27gb on my 64gb so it should be fine. Thank you m8! I will take a look at rpi-clone! Cheers!
