Re: How to backup X-profile & IDEfile compact flash cards

you need to define parameters to use the tool but you also need something to do the backup. xprofile_tool works on disk raw images, not on real devices.

Under windows, I use diskimage : http://www.dubaron.com/diskimage/ Under linux (and maybe also macosX) you should have command line 'dd'

To do the backup/restore, you only need diskimage. If you want to use your image on emulators (or install OS under emulator and run on real hardware) then use my tool in complement.
