In the remove file selector if you could include all then we would be able to scan through all of the files and do multi selections insteand of having to go letter by letter.
Other than that when we do recovery would it be possible to chose which files we want to bring back instead of having to do the whole image.
Thanks for the great work.

Ok. Got n800, normally booting from internal sd. Now booting from flash w/ management tools installed. How to know what to backup for complete sd-boot backup? Which partitions? jffs2? ext2? (I'm not good enough w/ linux yet to know where to begin....)

When installing mgmt-tools on diablo I get the following conflict:
dpkg: error processing mgmt-tools.deb (--install):
trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libmagic.so.1.0.0', which is also in package libmagic1
I think the midnight commander package depends on libmagic1.

The application won't accept all the files in one window, that why I broke it down by alphabit. Sorry cant fix this at the moment. Also removing the filesets from a partiton is a last resort recovery effort. Oops I installed an app and now I cannot boot. (that was its intent anyway)
#2
I planned on doing a restore files from backup, again this also goes back to the same issue as #1. I cannot display all the files in a window. Perhaps v2.

Flash runs from /dev/mtdblock4 (jffs2)
cloning this to SD will get you boot from SD
Hope this helps??

OK, I want to make sure I understand.
Let's say I do a backup of the flash's filesystem today. Then, tomorrow, I want to boot from an SD that is exactly similar to how my flash is set up today. Must the SD that I want to be a replica of today's flash already be bootable before I do this restore? That is, must the SD already have a filesystem that is then replaced by the filesystem that I backed up? Or is there one step to move from a clean SD to a bootable SD that is essentially a replica of the original flash?
A couple of other notes: I was confused on several dialogs that I think had "Text" as their heading. I wasn't sure at first if these dialogs were reporting progress, or just giving me information that, once read, I should click OK to proceed. It turned out that I was supposed to click OK. So it might help others if the instructions for moving through the steps were a bit more explicit. Relatedly, although the progress bar shows a full blue progress line when a process has finished, the text continues to say something like "Working..." (I can't remember what). So I wasn't sure if I should click OK, or wait for it to stop "working".
These are minor things, and my unclarity is mostly *MY* unclarity about filesystems and such. Thanks for your hard work......and patience!
