      Hello Sean!              Monday November 23 2015 20:12, you wrote to me:               > -=> Vince Coen wrote to Sean Dennis <=-               VC>> That looks too basic for me and tried to installed attic but it        VC>> fails near the end - so that one is out.               > Ah, well, your loss.

The idea is to back up the entire Mageia       / directory but without the contents of /mnt, /proc, /dev etc.                            Vince              --- Mageia Linux v5/Mbse v1.0.6/GoldED+/LNX 1.1.501-b20150715        * Origin: Air Applewood, The Linux Gateway to the UK (2:250/1)    |
