A program that will automatically backup your portable devices
to a folder in your home directory, which is configurable.
Currently works with inotifywait (inotify tools).
Need to implement HAL and udisks.
Currently there aren't very many instructions. So here goes.
-----------------------------
To install:
("BackupFolder" is whereever you want to place your backups)
Make the following folders:
BackupFolder/zdata/bin
BackupFolder/zdata/cache
BackupFolder/zdata/settings
Install backup-portable-drives to:
BackupFolder/zdata/bin/backup-portable-drives
and backup-portable-drives.conf to:
BackupFolder/zdata/backup-portable-drives.conf
Place your backup config (from example.conf) in
BackupFolder/zdata/settings
Run the program at (at computer startup):
BackupFolder/zdata/bin/backup-portable-drives
Backup will show up in
BackupFolder/<backup name>
--------------------------------
To configure:
Each backup config file start with:
# Drive id (program uses this to find and verify same drive)
# ID: 2345-4321
The "2345-4321" is your drive serial, though for now it just looks
for a file called ".uuid-info" at the root of the portable drive
and sees if it contains that number.
