Updating this in the hopes that I get some dialog. I fixed it. I found a tutorial on creating a live cd in debian, put the binaries I got from here in there. I’ll link to that later. I added a few packages and it worked. Basically it boils down to having an older kernel in for the restore cd. How often is this updated? Is anyone doing it regularly. I wouldn’t mind. Maybe we could have a reproducible way for everyone to do it so you know there’s nothing slipped in there.
I still don’t know how to get urbackuprestoreclient compiled. I followed the compilation instructions but to no avail–probably did something wrong but it doesn’t look like it compiles it by default.
I followed the build instructions on github to the letter but it just seems to fail. Is there more specific instructions for newbies? I’m using Ubuntu 18.04. Is the binary urbackuprestoreclient supposed to be in there when done? Do you have to do the client portion of the github instructions? Is there any specific wx package or library I’m supposed to install?
