Re: systemback

Never heard of that one. I use backintime (runs daily via cron). I'll have to check out systemback though if I really need to recover off a catastrophic failure, I prefer to reinstall from scratch. At least it's not as painful as the primitive windows installer.

yeah it’s pretty easy to just reinstall linux- but i do have a lot of customizations and non software mgr programs i have to manually install that take me a couple of hours to install and tweak to my liking-

I was able to do a ‘current system live CD’ backup which was quite nice- Will save me a lot of work and customization work-

Would be nice if there was a way to do a complete disk backup of the dual boot disk- as i have loads of windows customizations and tweaks too0- and that one takes me days to do-

Check out youtube for some videos on systemback- I think you’ll like it-
