and how you are transferring it,

i have a 64GB µSDXC on which i have two ext2 partition (src and src.ins)
it went into src.ins/home/nemo/.vault

but what about trying to compress it just like Jolla does it when you have microSD attached?

First
Code:
$ tar -zcvf Backup.tar.gz /home/nemo/.vault
and then
Code:
tar -zxvf Backup.tar.gz
on the other device.

What's there to see? I couldn't find anything that would justify the attitude. Yet I'm trying to help you even though you didn't even ask for it.

even though the 2 ext2 partitions are only about 8GB in total, plenty of room (for 1742MB?) and i didn't even bother with compressing

btw...
earlier today, about 2 or 3 device resets ago i installed mc

Code:

pkcon local-install mc-4.8.10-1.armv7hl.rpm

guess what... it's still there
not sure what that darn reset does except losing the user's data and going back to version 1, but it doesn't seem very thorough at it
thanks for the help, btw
