Hello, Thank you for replying :D Thing is I mainly want to backup file I download using the Synaptic Package Manager so that if I reinstall Ubuntu somewhere I can have my updates ready. This is a requirement because the download speed I get is not very high (I use Grameen) and I am not using a download accelerator in Ubuntu.
As I was told earlier, backing up the /etc folder should suffice I hope. Thank you. Kowsheek Mahmood http://profile.to/redkid On Sat, May 24, 2008 at 11:49 PM, Golam Md.
