Feeder resinstalled due to SD card crash. I have the old ADS-B Exchange Feeder ShortID. How to restore the old ShortID instead of using the new one?

I saw the post https://adsbx.discourse.group/t/how-to-change-uid/344 suggesting SSH into the Pi, and edit the file “/boot/adsbx-uuid” but there's no adsbx-uuid file.

ADSB Exchange

How to change UID

I would like to change my UID. Any assistance how I go about this would be very much appreciated.

I believe you need the full UUID. I forget how the short one is calculated, but I think it's based on a digest or truncation of the full one. Did you use the ADSBx Pi image?
