Everything about it! Heard the news? What! is Ubuntu bankrupt? Has Mandriva started marketing? Have you taken a sky diving course?

Backed up my system today

Postby viking60 » 14 Jan 2016, 02:01

I used the VikingRescueSystemto back up my main box today with Redo.

It took 4 hours!

Ok It was a bare metal backup doing the whole enchilada both Linux and Windows but you sure need patience.

It is a good thing that Redo has a browser so that you can play chess on the internet while it is doing its job. My system is pretty full so the backup was about 1TB.

That's how long it takes - now you know :-D

Before I backed up I used the VikingRescueSystem to scan for viruses with Trinity Rescue Kit where you have a lot of AV programs

- I used F-prot.
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.

F-prot, good choice. I use it for email sometimes in Linux.
I'm sorry I haven't had chance yet to download the latest recovery dvd from you. I'll have to get with you when I can.

Thanks! Good job!
