I made a backup of the home folder and applied it on the X200 and it worked.
Thanks for the suggestion.
First log on your old system and decrypt your /home directory. Then attach a
removable storage device with enough space to hold your /home directory. We
assume that your removable storage is mounted at /media/username/mount_point,
which can be checked by using lsblk command. Make sure that
I've made the mistake of copying files from the Thinpad X60 to a USB stick
then moving them to various folders on the Thinkpad X200.
/dev/sda1 which is ext4 and
/dev/mapper/trisquel-vg-home which is xfs
All the files got dumped in ext4 directory. I can now see that's for system
files.
Make a backup of your home directory and extract its content to your new home
directory.
For example, on your old system:
~ $ tar zcvf backup.tgz .
On your new system (copy the archive file backup.tgz or something else to
your new home directory):
~ $ tar zxvf backup.tgz
Loaded Trisquel 64 bit successsfully onto Thinkpad X200, SSD. Apart from
copying bookmarks over from the X60 32bit, can the settings be copied or do I
need to start again ?
