      Hi.

      I noticed on the homepage there are two downloads,

      One for RPi 0/1, and one for RPi 2/3. What is the difference?

      So that makes me wonder, am I unable to simply move my SD card from my B+ to my 3B when I get it?
      If not, how can I preserve my configs, scraped data, etc?

      Thanks.

          It will work, but you will want to update all installed packages to get rpi2 optimised binaries.

            Alright cool.

            Would a full-upgrade be safe or should I just do an upgrade?
