Rebuilding a system from zero means fetching your programs again configuring everything again, etc. You can rebuild a system but it is going to take a lot of time unless the original system was not very customized. It is less effort to backup fully every now and then. You can leave your home computer backing up while you are at work, for example, so it does not interfere with your activities and costs you no time. If something weird happens and the system is destroyed, you can leave the backup rebuild the system while you are having a walk with the horses, unatended. The downside is you must invest in storage. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
