It can also be useful to backup /etc/ to grab any system wide config changes, and the result of dpkg --get-selections to see what packages are installed. > Also the backup method I need to use needs to be accessible with my > access software ie Speakup and the Orca screenreaders. Sbackup is quite a nice backup tool and there's also hubackup. I don't know how well they work with screenreaders, sorry. There are many small scripts online that people have hand crafted. Maybe a script created in a text editor would be easier for you to manipulate via accessibility tools than bespoke applications. Cheers, Al.
