Re: [Announce] NEW Backupmenu-multiboot and new multiboot 0.2.11

Great app man!! Essential... It save me many times...

Note: Could be possible abort image creation when "taring" fails? I think It could reduce many fails restoring images...

Re: [Announce] NEW Backupmenu-multiboot and new multiboot 0.2.11

new to n900..

Mido - a quick question.. I have repartitioned my emmc to have a 21 GB /home. However I have only about 3 GB used out of it.

So when I use Backupmenu, would the backup tar file be 21 GB size irrespective of the size in use? or would it be just 3GB in size. I am this since I would not have space to back up on the phone or the SD card if the backup tar file would be the size of /home folder

Also I have swap running on my SD, so any special consideration for installation of the Backupmenu-multiboot ?

TiA

@ funkmunk

this is vold.fstab with the correct commands to mount real SDcard

u can find it in attachments as tar archive

copy it to /home/user/MyDocs

assuming u installed nitdroid on mmcblk0p6

open the terminal

root

mount /dev/mmcblk0p6 /and

cd /and/system/etc

tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/vold.tar

Re: [Announce] NEW Backupmenu-multiboot and new multiboot 0.2.11

All I need to do is backup/make and image of my phone so if I have issues I can just reload it.. What do I need to install. All I have is one OS and of course that is Maemo. Do I need the multiboot part?

Thanks

full guide to install multiboot 0.2.11 and backupmenu and kernelpower46 :

download this file :
http://www.mediafire.com/?4729126z6ig11k6

unpack it and copy its contents to /home/user/MyDocs

then open terminal and write the following :

root

cd /home/user/MyDocs

dpkg -i multiboot-0.2.11.deb

dpkg -i backupmenu-multiboot-1.0.deb

dpkg -i kernel-power-bootimg_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i multiboot-kernel-maemo_0.3-1_armel.deb
dpkg -i multiboot-kernel-power_0.3-1_armel.deb

dpkg -i kernel-power-headers_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-settings_0.11_armel.deb

then restart ur mobile with opened keyboard and u will find 3 choices :

1 - for stock maemo kernel
2 - for kernel power 46
3 - for backupmenu

and from now u can install also nitdroid kernel and u will find it in the choices
