Does anyone have experience with reflashing the image for a mynode setup? It's been yelling at me because my OS is only 32 bit and some of the apps only work on 64 bit now.

Should I just shut down, put sd card in computer and etch the latest version and re-boot? Will this preserve my lightning node and other important settings? (the file layout suggests so but one can never be too careful)

You can back up and restore the file system. Might just have to do a little surgery. Keep in mind that MAC address and certs might change as I think MyNode generates all of that stuff on firstboot.

Yeah, I think regardless of what I'm going to do, I'm going to snag a copy of those files off my HDD to some place safe, but I'm hoping I won't need them.

As always, sane backups, but I think I recall the process being smoother than expected.
