Well, I though that the file system was totally overwritten during an upgrade. But you're right, there's a lot more sanity checks that needs to be done.

Yes, set tab keys help to get more readable code.

I see, you use only move commands, because move changes address of data not data itself. Your moving manifest.xml forward/backward is efficient.
Thank you, what I think is more important is the removal of the unneeded export statements and the correct quoting of variables (i.e. ${scriptdir} instead of just $scriptdir). Regarding the move instead of copy, that means that you just update the inode entry instead of re-writing the whole binary once again.

Removing CF or MMC when not needed is active powersaving. If you use iLiad's USB drive linking will be ok.
USB drive linking? Could you elaborate on that? Beginning on Thursday I'll be taking the rest of the year off so hopefully I can use that time for some more serious thinking about how to do this.
