How to update a Raspberry Pi 3B image to a Raspberry Pi 3B+ image, thats the goal in this video!

Creating a Raspberry Pi 3B image is tough enough. Migrating what you've created to an entirely new Raspberry Pi 3B plus architecture can be even more difficult.

This video is basically two parts. The first part is how to create an empty Raspberry Pi 3B+ image, the second half is much more advanced and covers what folders and files I had to migrate from the old Raspberry Pi 3B into this new image to keep ALL of my settings, configs, media files, button mappings, etc.

The 3 final CLI commands in this video are here:
sudo chown -R pi:pi /home/pi
sudo chown -R pi:pi /opt/retropie
sudo chown -R pi:pi /etc/emulationstation


Software needed:
WINSCP:

Etcher:

Retropie 4.4 (Does not come with attract mode, all the setup scripts and such that I like in MB6 though):

Retropie 4.4 with MBv6:

WI-FI NOT WORKING ON YOUR PI 3B+?
An odd little “flaw” but on Raspian stretch OS, you must launch raspi-config and set your Country Code in order to get Wifi working.


Did you migrate over from 3B to 3B+ ? Tell us how you did it!


Merry Christmas and enjoy!
