Hi, My main hard drive failed, I have now a hard drive with all backuppc backups, no confs... I restored my home server with 2x500GB in RAID-1, hope it will help in future. As I'm trying to restore my data, I don't know what would be the best practice. So I've plugged the backup drive in my desktop PC and installed backuppc. Then I've created a symbolic link from my /var/lib/backuppc/pc on the pc folder where I can find my backups. I've then tried to restore thanks to BackupPC_tarCreate, without success...
