Support external mounted partitions #748

Backup

InstallerSee #762 |
Just to double-check, this means that I would be able to include my external hard drive mounted to /media in the full backup, right? Because that would be amazing, it's the only thing I'm missing from raspiBackup |
Yes 😄 |
That's incredible, can't wait! |
Any update on this?? |
You can check on the issues page which issues I'm working on right now 😉 |
How's this coming along? Can't wait to finally backup all my external media along with my system |
Keep in mind I work on raspiBackup in my spare time and not 8 hours every day. You don't speed up the implementation of this feature if you ask for progress all the time. |
As of now only the boot and root partition are saved in normal mode. Partition oriented mode can be used to backup additional local partitions but they have to reside on the same device as the root partition.
It' quite common to have additional data on other external partitions (not on the root device) which also should be saved.
Right now tar and rsync uses option -X which causes them to stay on the same device. Either -X should be removed and all external mounted partitions excluded if they are not included in an option or the included partition will be saved in a following step.
