Switching between two disk about cronopete HOT 8 CLOSED

Currently it is not possible... but it is a good idea.

ok. I will use an othetr backup tool for the second one. But I think that will be a very good practice.

Note that is is currently working if we switch manually between the two disks in the setting.

I know, but that is not a good solution :D

I'll try to add support for this in the new version.

I've been trying to implement this, but I'm finding a lot of dangerous corner cases, so I think I won't be able to add it to cronopete and keep it fully safe and functional.

But... there is a possibility: cronopete uses the partition UUID to detect the backup disk, so you can change the partition uuid in the office's disk, with the same value from the disk in your home. That way, it will detect both disks as the same one.

The only precaution is to avoid connecting both at the same time, of course...

Ok. Anyway, I hope to add a "folder backend", and that should allow you to do the backups in an easier way.
