.filetool.lst & bootlocal.sh Problems

(1/2) > >>

Madcamper:
I am having trouble with getting the .filetool.lst and bootlocal.sh to be backed
I use filetool.sh backup noprompt, it works for other files that are written in the .filetool.lst
but after i reboot it does not restore neither .filetool.lst nor bootlocal.sh
any solutions?

thane:
FWIW, the contents of my /opt/.filetool.lst:

opt/bootlocal.sh
opt/backgrounds
opt/.tcrc
opt/.filetool.lst
opt/.xfiletool.lst
home/tc

I just use the default backup and restore processing though.

It should just work.

Do you have "norestore" boot option? That would stop it.

Do you have "opt/.filetool.lst" in "/opt/.filetool.lst." It needs to be.

Give more details about your installation. Is there anything non-standard about your installation?


You could use opt=sda1 (use appropriate directory) boot option. These files would then be saved in persistent /opt.

gerald_clark:
The reason for the backup failure was a full filesystem.
The tce directory has since been moved to a different partition.

thane:
Would it be possible/desirable to have the shutdown abort in this situation, rather than continue and lose backup data?
