then you could default CFGDEV to something like: CFGDEV=`echo $PKGPATH | sed 's:/dev/cdrom::'` > I'm not sure if it's obvious if > backup fails that the above entry can be the fault, if a note is added in > the leaf.cfg file that the first entry is the backup device in the PKGPATH > it could be clearer. But I'm still not sure what to do... In alpine, you have to specify where to commit: lbu commit floppy lbu commit usb where the target needs to exist in /etc/fstab and be mounted in /media/*. If no target is specifide, lbu will try to use $LBU_MEDIA. -- Natanael Copa _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list leaf-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
