Hey Nils, I'm not sure you saw the about backup and application manager today? ;-) It was the decision of Marius to *don't make backups* in Application Manager that got us here. And it is already fixed, unfortunatelly for the IT-2006 users, only in Sardine, not in IT-2006. Be sure we do "backup and reflash new image" on daily or weekly basis here. Just imagine how annoying that it for us. Even worse knowing that the "guilty" guy sits just next door :) Br, --jakub >-----Original Message----- >From: maemo-users-bounces at maemo.org >[mailto:maemo-users-bounces at maemo.org] On Behalf Of ext Nils Faerber >Sent: 06 November, 2006 15:21 >To: maemo-users at maemo.org >Subject: [maemo-users] Backup - wishlist > >Hi! >Though I very appreciate it that the developers of Maemo >recognised the need for a backup application I think the >implemented backup method is only half baked, sorry. > >The mechanism is nice and many post-installed application >already use it >- i.e. to register your data and have it backed-up. > >But have you ever made a backup before flashing a new image >and then restored the backup?
