Bernie;

I wrote a preliminary guide here:

http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/deja-dup

Seems to work fine. Restores a new script built USB to the conditions of an older one that had a lot af extra applications.
A real restore! ....

Notes:

   * Backs up and restores

/usr/share/sugar/activities
/home/liveuser/Activities
liveOS and syslinux directories
 (Overlay-live-xxx (persistence)
  OSmin.img Squashfs.img files

   * Does Not backup journal or (f2) favorites

We also have a schoolserver based backup procedure already in place. See
the ds-backup-client package made by OLPC.

At ParaguayEduca we also developed a control panel icon to perform
manual backups and restores. We've also started to look at a procedure
to make the contents of the journal accessible through links in the
Documents folder. The opposite could also be done.

Additionally, Uruguay extended the Journal to backup and restore to USB
sticks. During this release cycle, we'll work to merge these changes
with ours into a consistent UI.
