Creating a disk image will preserve not only files but also the filesystem structure and when you decide to flash your new SD card, you will be able to just plug it in and it will work. On Linux, you can use the standard dd tool: dd if=/dev/sdx of=/path/to/image bs=1M The Raspberry Pi Guy On the 29th of February 2012 a credit card sized computer was released to the public...

Running a lightweight webserver on the Raspberry Pi (lighttpd) - Linux tutorial from PenguinTutor This guide covers setting up a light webserver on Linux using the lighttpd web server on the Raspberry Pi. Most of these instructions can also be applied to other Debian or Ubuntu based distributions (except the tasks using the raspi-config tool). I've already written a tutorial based on the "full-fat" Apache webserver (running a LAMP Apache based webserver on the Raspberry Pi). Lighttpd provides a way of setting up a web server without putting too much load on the limited processing capability. It's ideal for providing web access to the Raspberry Pi as a monitoring tool, or as a lightweight webserver for a personal website.

Raspberry Pi tutorial: how to do more For the price of a USB hard drive, you can turn the Raspberry Pi into a super cheap and supremely flexible network-attached storage box. To start with, we're going to enable SSH on the device. SSH is a secure shell protocol, and is a way of accessing the command line of your Pi from across your network. This is particularly important with the Pi, because sitting in front of a television isn't the best place for hacking. SSH will let you hack away from any other Linux, Windows or OS X box. Although SSH is included by default on the Debian distribution we've installed, it's not running.
