An automatic system backup occurs between 12 midnight and 1AM every night. This copies the contents of the /system/primary folder on the System SD card over the /system/backup folder. Any files with matching file names will be replaced.

You can use the procedures below to perform a manual backup. You might want to do this if you have just completed a large number of programming changes. This process can take approximately 6 minutes.
