This seems to be very useful to me to make a backup from a remote Pizero2 that is running my cellar pump.
I tried the scripts in my test environment - a mirror of the live system on another Pizero2- and came across a problem.
I created and mounted a /media subfolder in the Pizero and mapped it to my NAS drive 'cloud'.
I ran the image-backup script with a reduced size that was more than the used data size prompt.
It eventually fell over with a 'not enough space' message while creating a file in /tmp.
Do I understand that a large file is created in /tmp before processing/copying the data to the mapped target?
If so, that implies one cannot use the script if more than half the disc is in use?
Not a BASH scripter so apologies if the question is ill-founded.
