Re-using an existing REISERFS partition
Come (reportedly in a few weeks) Knoppix 7.4.1 and (but probably later) Linux Kernel 3.16, shall I be able to re-use the new REISERFS partition I recently created for Knoppix 7.4.0?
If it can be done, what will be the safest procedure?

The answer maybe in:
http://www.wp-schulz.de/summary/summary-backup.html
Is it still valid? Does it work for a REISERFS overlay or only for the '. img' overlay file smaller than 4GB?
Besides, Werner's script includes both '/home' and '/etc', which may not be a good thing.

You can delete within the function "p_backup()" at position
Code:
tar -C /KNOPPIX-DATA/ --exclude=*/Cache/* \
-vczf /media/$SEL/knx/bufi/$BU_FI ./home/ ./etc/ \
| awk '{printf "%-78s\r", substr($1, 1, 78)}'
the part "./etc/"
Code:
tar -C /KNOPPIX-DATA/ --exclude=*/Cache/* \
-vczf /media/$SEL/knx/bufi/$BU_FI ./home/ \
| awk '{printf "%-78s\r", substr($1, 1, 78)}'
and "Backup personal persistent memory" will only save all of '/home'
Does it work for a REISERFS overlay or only for the '. img' overlay
I've created and tested the script with overlay file and with overlay partition. You can see it in the Main part
Code:
# if persistent memory in overlay partition
OVL_PART=""
if [ -e /mnt-system/KNOPPIX/knoppix-data.inf ]; then
OVL_PART=`echo ${INST_PART/1/2}`
fi

Thanks, Werner.
I was reading old copies of your web site and of your script. I am now up to date...
