@peter247 there should be a FAT32 partition that the Duet reads directly (check the size and free with M39 https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M39_Report_SD_card_information ) and ab ext3 (or 4 can’t remember) to boot/run on RPi SBC. If you don’t plan to use an SBC you can reformat the card to use the full size.

@droftarts I had my config file disappear this morning after an edit. Thankfully I was able to copy and paste from the configbak file. First time on my 3HC although it happened frequently on my diet 2 wifi. RRF 3.4 is running now.

It was running 3.4 when it went missing?

I have had this happen to me several times. The first time I assumed I did something wrong as I was setting up my printer. This last time I was printing, then turned it off for a month or so, tonight turned it back on and no config.g file. Well I have the file but it is empty. This is most frustrating and I hope it is getting sorted out.

@cncmachineguy Happened to me as well. No useful responses beyond a statement that there is a bug, so I now keep an up-to-date backup copy on my computer. See this short thread: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/31280/config-g-disappeared?_=1679282976730

What firmware and DWC version were you running when it was lost?
-
@Phaedrux It looks like I am on 3.3RC? and 3.4.0 DWC version
I suppose I need to upgrade to 3.4 - off to find out how -
The easiest way is to upload the full zip file to the system tab in DWC.

If that still doesn't do it, you can to a more manual process here:
