Yeesss. Did seem a bit odd that there were no docs - any advice from SuSE types? Not much use having a backup util that people don't feel confident using - that's the whole point of backup up!
Couldn't agree more... However I'll tell you I've used, and restored from it in when things went bad... and it worked fine for me... for example I corrupted wine once and was completely unable to make it work again.... other time I erased a good chunk of my HD (juts playing with bash)... and I restored from a Yast backup and it came back, both times, to exactly where it was when I did the back up.. down to my stored emails, mozilla bookmarks and all, with out the packages I had installed since.. etc... wine worked just fine, like before... You can create backups of any size, and burn them to cds or copy them to tape.... However you need a somehow working installation to be able to enter Yast... so more tha a back up I see it as a system restore (like the one in Windows... oh! sorry I mean windoze). __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
