Greetings!

Thanks for nice mining distro Cheesy

My external HD is where I boot from, and since im happy with how it works, Im wondering how could i move this external HD image to my internal M2.1 SSD,
 but I Also have windows on this SSD.
Can i copy it somehow and keep having dual boot, or just copy without dual boot..


Unless you are very comfortable manually editing partitions; I don't recommend dual booting from your m2.  You can image the m2 and overwrite the current install; but I don't recommend this as; there is no need to use an m2 for mining.  A USB key or your external HDD should be sufficient.  Note v0019 applies osnwt's fix to remove an unused swap significantly reducing boot time.  Most of my USB keys boot in under 45 seconds; SSDs in under 25.
