What about trying to use the easy way?

Don't forget to fix the bucktracker issue:

Thanks a lot, Helmuth!
I thought that that tool was for building Python apps only... but it seems to work for mine also!

I'm now in the repo! http://maemo.org/packages/view/backupmenu/
Note: Wait for the 0.30-2 version. 0.30-1 has the 'bootmenu-n900' dependency incorrectly marked as 'bootloader-n900'.

No problem at all. Don't forget the thanks button.

This is only a small contribution to help you with your fantastic project. With my few linux skills I'm at the moment even to afraid to test your program on my Device and continue to try staying patient enought until some more people has responsed that it works without problems. But I wanted something like this from the early beginning. A full backup and if something is gone wrong put the image back. YEAH! My Mobile Computer in the pocket.

Good luck at the maemo programming contest. I will vote for your application.

Just tried(through flasher) , very good... only thing it didn't restore was titans kernel(I couldn't get any clock speeds above 600)

still saved me about 2 / 2.5 hours of installing app and modding, Thank you

Going to try bootmenu restore now...

Edit: btw can optfs be done through flasher or just through your menu?

Edit2: had a few probs with that, i'll stick to flashing through flasher for now

Hm, this is interesting - You had it in the backup? And it didn't carry past a reflash to 1.2 then restore? What did(does) uname -a state?

I don't think its possible to flash OptFS through the flasher, which was why I implemented it in my menu.

Can you elaborate? I can't improve it if I don't have error reports...

Thanks for that! Do you know how (and if) it is possible to use this together with Multiboot 0.2.5 (which I installed for Nitdroid)?

Several people have asked this, and I have posted my response on pages 2 & 3.
I've added my response to my first post also.

Update! I've just uploaded version 0.31-2!
This version has a 'terminal' module on it - which mostly works.
Its still being worked on, but it should be usable.
Try it out, tell me what you think.

edit:
And give me some BUG REPORTS!
I need feedback of -any- sort!

I made a backup of rootfs and optfs to be stored on eMMC. All went well. No problems at all. All done with BM 0.31-2.

My optfs was 4000+ Mb which means it showed 200% when it was done. I have repartitioned the size of my /home.. which might explain why

If i want to extract the rootfs on my Ubuntu machine. How do i do? I understand it is DD. But whatever i try don't work.

I thought it would be something like this.. but it wasn't
Code:
dd if=/path/to/file.img of=/to/folder/
