General discussion • Looking at improving my backing up of my Pie's MicroSD card

Hi,

Currently, my back process is like this:
1. Shutdown the Pie
2. Take the SD card out and insert it into my Windows PC
3. Take a backup of it with Win32 Disk Imager
4. Put the card back in the Pie and restart it
5. Copie the (big) image file to another Pie that has an SSD drive
6. Use pishrink.sh to shrink the image to something manageable

Is there a way I could combine steps 3 to 6 without needing to go through a Windows PC? Preferably, just put the MicroSD card into a USB slot of the Pie with a SSD and copy/pishrink directly from there?

Thanks.
