[How to] Make periodic backups of whole OSMC system

I’m getting this in my backlog

Please try version 0.1.7 where I have added some tweaks which may avoid these errors.

[Jonathan_Szoke]

Ok 0.1.7 works great except for one small thing, it is not removing the /media/backup directory when it finishes.

It seems it is not unmounting and rmdir the /media/backup directory. No errors in the log file though

Did you ask it to? I didn’t make any changes myself to allow for a setup like yours.

[Jonathan_Szoke]

Well, that’d explain it!

It’s the LBA flag you need. RPi doesn’t care about the boot flag. Should look something like this

Thanks! That sorted it and the backup now boots.
Great stuff!

Can you pastebin the output containing the errors?

Just saying thanks for providing this great resource. Installed on my Raspberry Pi3, up and running no issues.

Can we move this to another thread to avoid cluttering the how to with a user specific issue?

Can do, while it would be interesting for the threat to might precise the instructions
