Indeed. Here's the current state of our thoughts and research on this topic: https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/blueprints/-/wikis/backups > Below are 2 short files that add a simple GUI to back up the > persistent volume. Thanks! If I understood correctly, the data is copied to another, pre-existing (and already unlocked & mounted) Tails Persistent Storage, i.e. the scripts add a GUI on top of our current command line instructions: https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/persistence/backup/ The good news is that this is entirely compatible with the design we want to implement eventually (possibly next year). To me this would be a good incremental improvement over our current instructions. @sajolida, what do you think? I did not check how close the scripts are to somewhat we could integrate.
