Thanks
Yeah, one could backup just the DB with like pg_dump command (if it's Postgres), but as far as I knew, I cannot even log in a Putty SSH to the Solar Assistant OS (they don't give us a root password, unless someone knows how to enable it), I never tried it with a keyboard/monitor on the local console to see if it has a login prompt or just enters a UI desktop mode or console-only prompt...
If I could get a root login # prompt I could go in and poke around to see what kind of DB they use like Postgres or SQLite or whatever, formulate a command to dump the DB to a file... I'd also have to know the DB password as well.
But for now, the simplest way to backup the DB is whole OS, SD card image... I usually do that anyway on all my RPi installs for safety in case I hose them later. It's so simple to do and adds the extra security to know you can recover easily...
