It took a long time, but now there is a dedicated raspiBackup documentation page available. It was a lot of work, but I think it was worth it. Here we are => framps.github.io/raspiBackupDoc/ #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


raspiBackup V0.7.1 now supports gpt partition layout #raspibackup #raspberrypi


I just published another release 0.7.0.3 of raspiBackup because hostnames which include the string "-e" causes raspiBackups smart recycle to fail. If you have "-e" in your hostname please upgrade immediately. #raspibackup #raspberrypi


Unfortunately the first rsync backup with the new release 0.7 will be a full backup. Read github.com/framps/raspiBa… how to get raspiBackup to create an incremental backup instead #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


As usual a new release has some bugs. Thus 0.7.0.1 is out now ;-) #raspibackup #raspberrypi


raspiBackup release 0.7 was just published. For details see github.com/framps/raspiBa… #raspiBackup # raspberrypi


I unpublished recent raspiBackup beta. There have been various changes that I want to test carefully first. But there is light at the end of the tunnel :-) #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


I got a feature request recently which will minimze the downtime of any services: Use btrfs snapshots to create the system backup locally and then xfer the backup to the remote backup partition. I will work on this for next release #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


In next release of raspiBackup the partitions to restore can be selected and if rsync is used a fast rsync restore to an existing system can be done just to wipe out any changes which cause the updated system no longer to boot. #raspiBackup # raspberrypi


I hope to be able to release a new beta of raspiBackup next month. The announced feature to backup external partitions will not be included. The testing effort is simply too great.


I forgot to mention the clone feature will not be added to raspiBackup given raspiBackup's design is targeted for backups and not cloning. There is a tool called rpi-clone available which clones systems perfectly. #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


Just working on a new feature of raspiBackup: Backup external partitions in addition to the OS partitions. Then you can also backup your music partition or any other external connected partition. Refactoring code is required and needs some time ... #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


There is now a raspiBackup prototype available which supports to clone a running system to another device. Useful to create a cold standby backup :-). For details see github.com/framps/raspiBa… #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


rpi-clone is broken again on Bookworm :-( Yesterday the link from /boot/cmdline.txt to /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt was removed in an update. #raspberrypi


Folks who use rpi-clone on Bookworm should read github.com/billw2/rpi-clo… and install a version of rpi-clone which includes the Bookworm fix #raspberrypi


I just published raspiBackup installer release 0.4.8 #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


There is a new raspiBackup installer beta available which now uses systemd instead of crond. Switch from crond to systemd is possible. For details see github.com/framps/raspiBa… #raspiBackup #raspberrypi


raspiBackup 0.6.9 was just released For details about new features and bug fixes see github.com/framps/raspiBa… #raspiBackup #raspberrypi
