Upgrading instructions
This v2.0 contains an important change to facilitate upgrading to future versions. RetroArch savestates and standalone emulators that support them will now be stored on the external card, so they will not be lost when flashing the internal card with a new version of the image. The configuration files however have been kept on the internal card as they are part of the design of the image. Advanced users who make modifications to these configurations can still use Py Backup to backup/restore them.
To facilitate the special migration between the 1.x and 2.x branchs of the image, a small utility has been created that copies all the savestates to the new directory structure of the external card that will keep them from now on. SimpleMenu favorites and settings made at the ROM level of the emulator chosen to run them are also copied. The utility is the adam_v2.0_migrator.opk file which is included in the release files. The following video shows how to install and use this utility.
Once used, delete the adam_v2.0_migrator.opk OPK as it will no longer be needed.
