You can backup the configs for your applications, but the apps themselves need to be re-installed. The myDSL system makes installation very simple, though...you can put them all in a single directory and install them in one go with:
| Code Sample | | for APP in /path/to/directory/*; do mydsl-load $APP; done |
If you happen to know where all the files from every application are located, you can back those up, but it's really much easier just to reinstall.
From what I've read here, an upgrade system is probably not going to be implemented any time soon, if ever. The harddrive install is an old process that seems to be of secondary importance to improving the more flexible frugal setup. Frugal is also much closer in behavior and appearance to the original liveCD system, so i assume that development of frugal from liveCD is a much more natural and simple process than trying to develop the liveCD into a traditional harddrive system.
