I created a full backup on my Trimui Brick. The file is 12 gig with a large amount of scraped images. After doing a fresh install of Jacaranda and reimporting my roms i had 200gig on my 512GB SD Card left empty. Now i tried to restore the backup file, which failed on the cheats folder.
At first it re-imported alphabetically:
application
bios
catalogue
On Cheats i had my first crash with the message:
Error: Not enough free space on ‘cheats’ Need 15206067791 bytes, have 4687458304 bytes! Target: /opt/muos/share/emulator/retroarch/cheats
I don’t have any self imported cheats…
After that i created a test copy of the backup file, removed application, bios, catalogue and cheats folder.
The collection folder worked again, then it stopped on config and then again after some more deletion it stopped at overrides.
Hi, i applied the fix and now i get this error:
Scanning Archive Directories…
/opt/muos/script/mux/extract.sh. line25: ARCHIVE_LIST_CACHE: parameter not set
Correcting Permissions…
Hm, i don’t get an error anymore but it does nothing… Does the process scan if some of the folders are already extracted? Because i deleted all the folders that did not work from the backup and step by step extracted all the working ones. (Saves, catalogue etc.)
I now have 3 backup files on my brick, one with everything, one with everything besides the catalogue and one with only the saves and overrides.
All of them the process starts with your fix 2:
Inspecting Archive
Scanning Archive Directories
correcting permissions
sync filesystem
all done
Now the re-import works. I get a lot of “skipping unsupported archive” messages, but most of them are systems i don’t have roms for. Is there any log i can provide or is this normal?
Okay, lucky number 7. This adds a small modification that if the directory in question does not exist, we’ll traverse backwards. Just so we can get a valid free space marker.
