I've been playing around with Debian using an alternate SD card for the past week or so, but I'd like to go back to using the original 4GB SD card that holds my Meteohub installation. I modified my U-Boot configuration to get Debian Squeeze working, but stupidly forgot to back up the settings/env variables before doing so.

Would you be able to point me at something to explain how to use the Meteohub image again, please? I searched the forum, but can't find anything Meteohub specific.

Thanks in advance.

It sounds as though you just need to modify your environment variables to boot from the Meteohub SD card. Those settings aren't very friendly to booting from other cards, but you could probably prepare an SD card the Meteohub way and figure it out if you wanted. The main thing about Meteohub is that it tries, continually, to boot from SD card. If it fails to find a suitable card, it resets and tries again. It will do this forever. Therefore if / when you swap from Meteohub to another system, ideally, you should take extra care to perform a graceful shutdown.
