Advanced users • Re: Boot Bullseye, Buster, or Stretch on a Raspberry Pi 5 : Made Easy

The attached rpi5-boot script will update Bullseye, Buster, or Stretch to boot on a Raspberry Pi 5.

First, MAKE A BACKUP of the device you wish to update.

Next, perform the update:

Code:

sudo rpi5-boot /dev/sdX

Once the update is finished, the device should boot on a Raspberry Pi 5.

Note: In the case of a Stretch device, the BOOT partition must be expanded before the update process is attempted.

This is easly accomplished using the the included expand-boot script:

Code:

sudo expand-boot /dev/sdX
