Can I install a backup agent onto DSS?

Can anyone tell me what flavor of Linux DSS runs on top of, and if I can get a backup agent for this OS would it be possible to install to the flash drive?

I would really like to be able to do block-level backups of my NAS volumes direct from Open-E to my backup software, but I'm not running one of the 3 offered agents.

Has anyone already tried (and succeeded) ?

dzjowk,

open-e has decided to keep their system closed, so there's no official shell access for customers.

I once asked to have the included bacula client to be reconfigured so I can use my existing manager to do the backups, but even that was rejected because of IPL concerns.
