How to get a file from a Raspberry Pi flash drive? There was Raspberry Pi B. Now Raspberry Pi 3. From the first one there was a flash drive (SD), several files from which I would like to transfer to a new one. But it has not yet been possible to get files from it. There is a computer with a card reader and linux, but what to do next is not clear.

Answer 1

on parse, usually two partitions are created:
- boot. ~100Mb, fat32
- root. all remaining space. ext4
, most Linuxes will offer to mount the partitions via the GUI.
if this is bad, then:
- insert the sd-card into a computer with Linux
- lsblk- will show available block devices. we are looking for our sd-card among them
- mkdir mnt_pi_root
- mount /dev/sdX2 mnt_pi_root>
ps An alternative option is to teach windows to work with ext4. google is here to help
