In order to backup the SD I followed this guide: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/linux/filesystem/backup.md

1. Backup of the boot partition: sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/mmcblk0p1 of=raspbian_boot.img
2. Backup of the main partition: sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/mmcblk0p2 of=raspbian.img

Well now I've these 2 img file: raspbian.img (~16GB) and raspbian_boot.img (~44MB), how can I restore these ones?

I know that I've to use these:

1. sudo dd bs=4M if=raspbian_boot.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
2. sudo dd bs=4M if=raspbian.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p2

But the real problem is: how should I partition the new SD? Which file system for each img? The first one has 3 different partitions (the first: /dev/mmcblk0p0 is not allocated at all)

Environment:

• My laptop OS: Linux Mint 18.2 Cinnamon 64-bit - Kernel: 4.10.0
• My Raspberry OS: Raspbian Stretch with desktop (Version: August 2017) - Kernel: 4.9
• Raspberry is installed on a 16GB SD card
• When the Raspberry SD is inserted into my laptop through a working card reader I can see these two partition: /dev/mmcblk0p1 and /dev/mmcblk0p2

Short question:

• How to make a full backup of the raspberry SD in order to move the OS on another SD.
