Backup an restore Armbian from Banana Pi M5 eMMC

I try alot of thing on my Banana Pi M5. It's easy to burn an image to eMMC storage. But i don't want to loose all and i want to backup my Banana Pi and it's not easy...

Like for my Raspberry Pi, i want to make an image of everything really often. Once the Banana Pi boots on the eMMC memory, it is impossible to boot on the sd card. So I tried to create the image directly from the Armbian installed on the eMMC storage with the command :

sudo dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=1M status=progress | xz > /media/USB/emmc_backup.img.xz

ok, i have my image. I reset the eMMC with :

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1

i put an SD card with Ubuntu and i do this command for restoring :

sudo dd if=/media/USB/emmc_backup.img of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=1M

No luck :

Loading, please wait...

Starting systemd-udev version 252.22-1~deb12u1

Begin: Loading essential drivers ... done

Being: Running /scripts/init-premount ... (initramfs)

No more It's the same when i try to duplicate my Banana Pi on an other. Duplicate my Banana Pi it's my final goal but backup it's more important for the moment. I try to find a solution on internet : everybody burn the eMMC but nobody backup
