Thank you guys.
Indeed, I have two batteries and an external charger so this is not a battery issue. I'll try the things you said (iternal usb, etc.). And in the meantime, I bought another one: cheaper, newer, etc.
And since I have nightly backups on my personal server (rsync to server, then rdiff-backup the result), I lost nothing from /home/user/ except one photo!

I never got around to install this and, you guessed it, my n900 experienced a nasty crash that took out both rootfs and home partition (it would boot after flashing rootfs but couldn't install anything and GUI corrupted on second boot)
So after reflashing I want to do things properly. I already installed KP52 and CSSU-T-thumb. Next was going to be this, but I can't find backupmenu in HAM.
extras-devel is enabled and I can see packages that are in there.
Is there an issue on my end or is the preferred way to install to download the deb?

*bump* ?
I see it listed in http://maemo.org/packages/view/backupmenu/ but not in HAM? Any idea why?

I was going to facepalm but I'm just puzzled... backupmenu is already installed...
I just reflashed 2 days ago so I remember what I did, so I'm puzzled.
Anyway, it's working great now and I should have come up with using apt-get myself. Thanks for the push in the right direction!

just for an help...
I have my second N900 that has usb port broken, I have done some experiments and now it starts and reboot, again and again... I have BackupMenu on it but it never arrives to the point to load it...
I have some hope to making it work again or... I have to say goodbye to it?

Find the:
...in /usr/share/backupmenu/BackupMenu.item and (with care!) edit out mkfs command contained in next few lines.
Sorry, can't give you exact line number and/or exact string to edit, as my BackupMenu.item is already modified beyond much ressemblance to vanilla one.
/Estel
Code:
#Begin OptFS Segment

All times are GMT. The time now is 19:52.
i was never really sure why it happened - i believe probably something to do with KP51 -> KP52 transition?
anyway it works great for me now (more than half a year already).
