Quote (green @ April 18 2006,10:56) | Have you considered using a USB memeory stick of some kind? That way you will not have backups, favorites, etc. spead out all over the place (been there, done that). By saving your backup to a USB memory stick thingy, you'll always have the most current backup with you and no one will have access to it. You can have all your files, etc. on it as well. You can avoid storing it on a hard drive where others may have the potential to accidentaly delete it, etc. Also, if some of those PC's belong to your employer, they may not appreciate you storing DSL stuff on it. Also, they may have some kind of software inventory or other programs that could destroy your data, or just make notes that you are using non-company issued software. ...... Yes, sometimes I'm paranoid. |
Okay, I've heard mikshaw mention something similar. How, then, exactly do you set up different "profiles" on your USB DSL system? Set up different folders like "work" and "play" that each contains a separate backup.tar.gz? And then enter a "dsl restore=sda1/work" kind of deal?
