Two things:
First, thanks for the donation. You know who you are.

Second, I've uploaded a ubinized image of my own Rootfs with BackupMenu v0.50-3; hopefully it'll help someone out.

Robbie,

I see only ver 48-3 on repos (using defaults + testing + devel).

What is the advantage of ubinized image?

Thank you for all your efforts, I was looking for an application like this for a long time.

Joel:
The repo's been down(at least for uploading) for a couple of days now.
I just uploaded the new package; hopefully it'll get built and work.

Making a ubinized image allows you to flash it directly via the Nokia flasher - Handy if you screw your system up so badly that even BackupMenu won't boot.
If you -don't- have one of these and it won't boot, then you have to flash PR1.3, install BackupMenu, reboot, and restore - a lengthy process, to say the least.

Also, no, I don't think I will. Remember, once extras-devel comes back online, a simple 'apt-get install backupmenu' will install all dependancies at their latest versions.
Also, it'd make things harder for multiboot people - now, installation is possible by installing gnu-tar, then running "dpkg --force-depends -i ./backupmenu*.deb", then using multiboot to launch "/usr/share/backupmenu/BackupMenuLauncher.item".
nope dont think so dude , but will check soon on way home now so i can see the files i flashed with an will let ya know . .

Yes, now I found it!! Thank you.

Maybe a stupid question: Where can I download the ubinized image?

Sorry about the double posting, but... is there any specifc Kernel you recommend using with BackupMenu or is not relevant? I mean... can I use Power Kernel / Default Kernel or some kernel works better with BackupMenu?

Thank you stevomanu, but I think I wasn't clear. I'll give more details to explain my doubt.

I'm using the last PR1.3 (Global) images... and It's working fine with me using Power Kernel. Is It possible to use with default nokia kernel the same way?

Because, maybe I uninstall Power Kernel because of some incompatibilities with JoikuSpot.

The idea is that you make it yourself, but it requires a Linux PC. Alternately, there -is- my own image linked on the first page, which should serve the same purpose.

Shouldn't matter. I use Power Kernel personally.
