Backup Key files to ease recovery on NX70

[lal2707]

What key/system files must be backed up to ease the recovery process after a hard reset or another disaster? If I get comments I could create a list which would help NX70V users. We have identifed key applications/utilities so what compenents should be backed up? I was looking at using the MS Pro for the backup. If you have JackFlash running need to be aware of implications for backup/recovery etc

Be aware that you will not be able to use the MS Pro after a hard reset because your MS Pro drivers will no longer be installed.

On a regular MS, (I always backup to several MS's) store the following files below.

Store the WL100 driver, CF driver, MS Pro driver, the system update patch, and Flash enabled.

The above files are usually not restored by any backup app.

What are the actual filenames for the above? Does Backupman not handle them?

For the WL100 driver (which you only have if you have the Clie Wifi card), the file that doesn't backup is CFWL100Neti, so I put it into flash using Jackflash. I don't have either the CF driver, MS Pro driver, or system update patch on my device, so I can't help you out there. FlashEnable is the file that comes with Jackflash that lets you access Flash after a hard reset. BackupMan would probably have no problems restoring it, but you need the file to restore Flash to get access to BackupMan (with BackupMan stored in Flash), so I keep a copy on the MS and copy it back to RAM using ClieFiles after a hard reset.

I Use Backupman but it does not backup all files
I also backup using MSBackup to the MS as well but again does not backup all files

I also have CFWL100Neti in Flash using JackFlash
