Destination (in your case home) on the same device as the source is not allowed

Does not make sense

Yes, I understand. When I tried to point to the /media/128gb.... direction, I got this error. When I tried my 2nd USB-drive which is connected, also on /media, I had the same. Therefore I tried a location the home partition and that was accepted. Not what I wanted ofcourse, so since that didn't thrown an error, I tried the /media locations again, but to no avail. After the error message of not able to save settings, it retuns the backup location back to the previous setting ( in my case the tryout of the thome folder).

I manually updated the backup location, straight in that xbian-snap file and my home folder backup works great now. The system image location sticks as wel in the /media location, however, when I for instance change from 1 file to 2, it 'can't save settings'.
I tried to run a system backup anyway, but that is cancelled within seconds with the on screen message of:
Please wait while creating backup file.
/dev/root /media/128gb_etcetc.img
Sorry, operation failed with error #005!

Can this have to do with my system running on a USB-stick, while booted from an SD-card (RPI 2b)?

My /etc/fstab:

Code:
