:-) for you Dhorf, who are a brilliant computer scientist, for you. Or for
others that have the capacity and the biological memory to store this
information. But for more normal users, the backup route is easy enough to
be done safely without headaches and without arriving at a dead end where
the only chance is asking for help. It is just spending some time.   Not
only that, the Qubes backup system is very good and safe,  better than all
other systems I tried, Windows or Linux. Over about 10 years I restored my
systems lots of times and Qubes never failed. But Dhorf you are a good
teacher, the other time you taught me how to repair a filesystem with fsck
and I remembered it enough to use it with a another non-Qubes system and it
solved the problem, Thanks.
