Fine, thanks!

[Frenske]

I wasn't 100% sure but, as expected, it is et7000mini.

[Pedro_Newbie]

Thanks, I will add the GI et7000 mini tonight

[Frenske]

Thank you, on behalf of the users.

[Pedro_Newbie]

Your welcome, the change is just committed.

 

I may have to get/need some help with the new 4K models with arm processors as the mutant hd51 and others.

 

If any of the users know the exact way to make a backup and can embed it in the backupsuite (athoik maybe?) they are welcome to show me the way

Hello , i want change my HDD in my Duo 2 and want to back- up only channels and bouqets and do clear instalation of newer image PLI and how to do this easy and fast ! ? Please help !!!

[betacentauri]

@pedro: hd51 also use ext4 rootfs, but it supports multiboot. So you need to adapt backup mechanism. Captain from Atv already has adapted their backup mechanism. So you can look at Atv code to see what he changed.

I'm afraid this is a bit out of my league if I see the ImageBackup.py, especially the MultiBoot  part, example:

Well I wait until the Openpli image is available and see what I can do

hi ,

 

first this app is my number one for my vuo duo2

but im not able to restore a saved image from my hdd with the blue button , i got this message "error remounting root abort flashing try to restore e2" then 30sec and it reboot e2

[betacentauri]

There are several things that can cause this. A special softcam for example. Stop it if you have one running. Or other processes.

 

I have made a total new version of the flashing program, which should solve this problem. I try to add it to the feeds in the next days.

[blunt]

ok thanks for the tips

[teo1966]

whats the command for install backupsuite whit telnet ?

[Pedro_Newbie]

opkg install enigma2-plugins-extensions-backupsuite

Probably there will be Backupsuite support for the Mutant HD51.
@WTE provided me with a Mutant HD51 (Big Thanks!) and I'm experimenting with it. Because of the lack of time it could take some time before the BackupSuite supporting the HD51 is released, but I'm sure at the end there will be a proper working version.

At the moment I'm able to create a complete backup under the 10 seconds, this backup can be flashed back to a working version (only via USB at the moment), online flashing using the BackupSuite with the blue button doesn't work, I'm not sure it will be supported in the future.

I must first thoroughly test it all before it will be released

 

A small taste of the current situation (watch the needed time )

I'm only testing for a standard situation with Openpli WITHOUT multiboot!
 

[bril]

Very nice. This box is very fast. What concerning the backup to harddisk, maybe you have to add in the fstab a mount of the harddisk because otherwise it is mounted as an usb device.

 

I have,

 

/dev/sda1            /media/hdd          ext4 rw,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

Tomorrow the HD51 is supported in the BackupSuite. Please bear in mind: This is still work in progress but you should be able to make a complete backup of your HD51

This version is not suitable in a system with a multiboot configuration, so if you're running such a configuration please do not use it to make a complete backup of all your partitions!

[betacentauri]

Only backup or also flashing?
Do you create rootfs.tar.bz2 or disk image file?

[Pedro_Newbie]

Only backup, no flashing, it is in disk.img format

 

I tried flashing with kernel1.bin and rootfs1.bin after adapting the plugin.py but I got an error message from ofgwrite (don't know it exactly now but it was about the kernel)

Can't reproduce it now because I call it a day, the alarm clock is going again in about 6 hrs.

[betacentauri]

Ofgwrite only supports rootfs.tar.bz2 backups. It cannot use disk.img backups.
I hope some day mutant will also support rootfs.tar.bz2 flashing via usb stick. Disk.img is an ugly format when it's cut off at the end which is done in all images (Pli, ATV,...).

Good night.

[Pedro_Newbie]

I reworked the BackupSuite for the Mutant HD51.
Betacentauri pointed me at possibly problems with the chosen approach, now the backup is made in (compressed) tar.bz2 format.

The downside is that the made backup can only be restored via the BackupSuite via the Blue button (Restore backup) and the time needed for making a backup is increased to 1 - 2 minutes.
The upside is you have always a working backup!

It's still work in progress!

Thanks Betacentauri for your guidance
