Update voron 2.4 with RPI 3 to RPI 4, how to

[Dutchronnie]

I have a good working voron 2.4 with a raspberry pi 3, i do have sometimes undervoltage issues.
I do have a raspberry pi 4, so i want the pi 4 in the voron..

What is the best way to do this, without haveing to install klipper and al the add-ons again.

Can i put the original sd card in the RPI 4? or is there a way to migrate the software?
I hope somebody can help.

Copy your entire config folder and upload it to the new card.

You may be able to use the card, but I wouldn't even try.

So...new card, reinstall OS, reinstall klipper and everything else you have on there, then upload your files again, making sure your MCU address didn't change.

Not sure on if you need to ensure a match on klipper and what you flashed on your MCU, but it couldn't hurt.

It doesn't take long after you do it once, you kind of remember the process. But I've done it about 100 times now, so I can't remember if I could remember that much back then.

Now would be a good time to setup a backup process:

Backing up printer configuration files to GitHub

Voron Official and Community Documentation

docs.vorondesign.com

Easy way to collect all your files. Easy button is to download them to a PC, then upload directly vs using a git pull process.

Thanks, i think that the best is to install from scratch.

Also the backup to the github is a good idea, i already started to setup.
