Orange Pi Plus 2e How do I clone the SD card and both have boot capability?

 

I am new to the concepts of Pi's so I am looking to slowly add abilities to the pi and have a working clone which I can use when I stuff it up.

 

I have also seen no mention of grub being used anywhere.

My main computer is a amd 64 with Debian running but I can use my laptop with win 8.1 on it but would prefer a solution which I can use on Debian

 

Thanks for your help

Better to make a script of your work / changes and which you apply to the clean install, when needed. 

How to clone SD card.

 

There is no GRUB on those boards.

Thanks igor for the link

I assume there is no other menu program to choose which boot option is available?

You mean to select / boot into different systems at boot start like in GRUB? I don't know if  this is possible with some menus and even it is, it would be limited to some boards, which can use modern u-boot. It can be done from user space + reboot.

Not all boards are at the level, you started playing with - Orange Pi Plus 2e ...
