Up until now I found the following things:

Running the back_up_db.sh is working OK.
There are backups created with the time stamp on the filename.
There is a problem with the restore_db.msh though.

When I run it, I get a message
Code:
directory not found:
/mnt/onboard/.kobo/kbmenu/.kobo/kbmenu/backup
I found that it has:
Code:
sourcedir=$ksmroot/.kobo/kbmenu/backup
sourcefilebasename=KoboReader.sqlite"
instead of:
Code:
"sourcedir=$ksmroot/backup
sourcefilebasename=KR.sql
But it must be something else also, because when I run the corrected one I get a:
Code:
usage:
restore_helper.msh
AbsolutePathToSourceDirectory
SourceFileBasename
AbsolutePathToTargetFile
I can't get out of this with the 'Close' button, so I have to reboot.

Running the back_up_kor_persistent.sh seems to be working OK too (There are backups created with the time stamp on the filename).
With the restore_koreader_persistent.msh I get a flash (like when something is executed) but the defaults.persistent.lua stays unchanged (the backup file is not restored).
There is also no presentation of the backup files to choose from (like the older restore_db.msh).

I'll keep on looking at them ...
