Little Backup Box
Bash shell scripts that transform a Raspberry Pi (or any single-board computer running a Debian-based Linux distribution) into an inexpensive, fully-automatic, pocketable photo backup and streaming device.
Installation
On your Raspberry Pi, download the latest version of Little Backup Box:
wget https://chiselapp.com/user/dmpop/repository/little-backup-box/tarball/little-backup-box.tar.gz
Unpack the downloaded tarball archive:
tar xzvf little-backup-box.tar.gz
Switch to the resulting directory and make the install-little-backup-box.sh script executable:
cd little-backup-box
chmod +x install-little-backup-box.sh
Run the installer script:
./install-little-backup-box.sh
Usage
- Boot the Raspberry Pi
- Plug in the backup storage device
- Plug in the card reader and wait till the Raspberry Pi shuts down
Note: To differentiate between different storage cards, the backup script assigns a random 8-digit identifying number to each card (this number is stored in the CARD_ID file in the root of the card). The contents of the card is saved on the storage device in a folder with the identifying number as its name.
