[WARNING] Back up your /efs folder

Today's Top Pro Tip:

If you hear a little voice in your head screaming, "Don't do that you idiot, you KNOW it's gonna end in tears!!!", listen to it. Otherwise you might spend an hour sitting at a computer at 1am trying to persuade your GS2 to come back to life. :o

Im up to KI4 cf root and installing Villain 3.0. and YES /esf backed up ;)

Im not taking any chances this time :)
 
About backing up the precious efs folder, do you think Hellcat's ktool is good enough to backup the efs ? Or should I use a different method just in case ?
The problem is I don't have access to a Windows bx.

HellKAt is quite a respected DEV and coder. Many years experience including when I was hacking/modding my PSP. His little program works a charm. There are many ways to do this but I just found this method the most user friendly. You can of course just copy paste the files yourself when you connect it to a pc or using Root manager. I think some of the Kernals do it automatically also.
