Iāve just had had my SD card fail before I could get around to setting up some sort of backup regime. (I have now purchased an āenduranceā SD card to rebuild on too. Hopefully this will reduce the MTBF. )
Is there a way I can retrieve the configuration from the SD card in a PC or Mac or something or am I SOL?
Iāve had a crack at using Windows Subsystem for Linux but I still had the issue of the partition not being visible to Windows so I couldnāt present it to Linux. But I think I was going about it the wrong way. Instead of mounting the drive letter that was visible to Windows, maybe there is a way to access the raw disk or whatever its called from WSL?
The most promising option looked like 6.72 GB drive in that screenshot above. A quick poke around in there I found the following location /var/log/journal\supervisor\homeassistant\ which had my configuration.yaml etc. in it!
Thatās exactly what I was looking for! Thanks @tom_l!
Take your entire /config folder and you should be good.
There is no /config folder visible but would be reasonable to assume in this view, /var/log/journal\supervisor\homeassistant\ is my config folder? Its got all the same files in it.
Just coming a few years later to say thank you. I was also trying to save my HA contents before I try more extreme measure to recover my SSD and couldnāt find how to get to the config dir until I bumped here.
looks like the supervisor diretory in the hassos-data partition (8th partition from the list) is the config directory. Thank you!
