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.

Probably should have been named 2008libs.tar, but I digress. If you can get it working I will make a second deb for 2007OS, or maybe just an addon deb...
This contains
libnotify.so.1
libnotify.so.1.1.2
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0.1600.4
ibcairo.so.2
libcairo.so.2.11.5
open xterm
sudo su -
cd /
tar xvf /path/to/2007libs.tar
good luck let me know whats next?

Success!!
I used gparted to establish partitions on clean external 2gb sd that were symmetrical to my standard cloned internal sd. Then I used management tools to clone from internal to external. Then bootmenu update. Then successful reboot from newly cloned external. Amazing. Bravo!
Now I will try cloning clean flash to the external, backing up the internal, and then restoring the internal's backup to relatively clean external. This is fun!

Say, what exactly a "scale value" and how do I know which to choose while I'm writing a new bootmenu?

This is the default timeout value for bootmenu 0-60

#1 In order to clone or restore, the filesystem you are overwriting must exist. Use gparted (Partition editor) to create your filesystems. My menus will allow you to format them, but they must exist prior to running mgmt-tools. There is no one step process. Use gparted to create filesystems, preferrably #1 FAT , #2 ext2 or 3, #3 then perhaps a swap partition. My tools allow you to have many partitions on one SD card. You could have 6 bootable images from 1 SD card easily. Once the clone is complete then you must install bootmenu.
I know its not a 1 button push, but its 10000% more reliable and very configurable.
Partitioning rules
Always make first partition on card FAT (any size), this is the filesystem that is seen by maemo (internal and external SD) /media/mmc1 and media/mmc2
I try to place my swap partiton on the opposite card if possible, not the card I will be booting from saves on I/O contention
#2 you can always click close or ok as soon as they appear. Just NEVER click cancel unless you want to abort. If you click ok and its not done nothing will happen.
FAT is the filesystem type used by default on SD cards, in order to boot from them you need an ext2 or ext3 partition.
ext2 and ext3 are linux filesystems and are required for booting from SD
SWAP partiton is needed to use swap or virtual memory can be used. ("Virtual Memeory" Try to enable it on the card your not booting from, and remember this will sit on the FAT partiton so make sure its big enough for your virtual memory)
jffs2 This is the partition used by Flash. This will always be jffs2.
You can clone directly from jffs2 to ext2/3 and from ext2/3 to jffs2
flash device shows up as /dev/mtdblock4
SD cards show up as
/dev/mmcblk0 (Base card)
/dev/mmcblk0p1 (p1 is the first partition and should be FAT)
/dev/mmcblk0p2 (would be your first ext2/3 partition) and depending on how many partitions it could go from mmcblk0p1-7
These are the internal and external SD cards
mmcblk0
and
mmcblk1
Hopefully some of this helps?
