Hi,

I've got a couple of reports (completely hearsay, but from reputable
people) about backup-menu being incredibly dangerous due to it `dd'ing
the MTD directly, and so not taking into account bad/erase blocks:

    
http://mg.pov.lt/maemo-irclog/%23maemo.2010-10-07.log.html#t2010-10-07T23:02:40

It's been suggested it is removed from Extras-devel. Thoughts? Rob, is
it something you can upload a version to fix? Can anyone provide a
definitive account of the effect it's had, and in what circumstances
it'd have it?

Cheers,

Andrew
