DreamSaver is a plugin for saving the image on an external storage medium. The backup will be created in the background and a message will be displayed once the backup is created. The progress of the backup can be seen in the plugin itself or can be displayed every n minutes/percent if desired. Overlay based on percentage is an approximation. It is also possible to display the progress permanently.
After installation, the plugin can be found under Menu > Settings > System > DreamSaver.
The plugin does not offer the following functions:
Backup to Flash (/data)
flashing the backup
The plugin can be installed via our feed and can basically be used in all images based on Dream-OS, provided the necessary dependencies are available (coreutils, tar, pv).
Developer Project Merlin
Code: Select all
If you want to install the plugin on a bare DreamOS unstable, you need additional dependencies.
The best way to do this is as follows...
pv from the attachment with the plugin into /tmp and install both with
Code: Select all
dpkg -i /tmp/*deb...
Then install the other missing dependencies with
Code: Select all
apt -f install
armhf = DM9X0
arm64 = DreamONE/TWO
With a Merlin you can of course install the whole thing via the addon manager and the dependencies will also be installed.
