How to restore from backup recovery in ssd to sd card

[zskangus]

I have a raspberry pi 5 with a sd card, and a 1t nvme ssd via hat extension.

The sd card is for operating system and ssd is for storing files, so far I have realized to backup sd card to ssd.

How do I restore a backup from ssd to sdcard? This can be done without any external tools and without plugging or unplugging the ssd card

When you have cloned the SD card to your SSD you will be able to boot from your SSD the clone. Then use rpi-clone to clone the clone to any SD card.

I wrote a switching script directly for sd and ssd startup switching, and can easily use the clone now
