[SLE] YAST/System Adminstration/Backup
After finally getting my new system set up under 6.4 I wanted to create a backup, but the only packages included are those that were modified from the original RPMs. Files that are not part of an installed package are not searched for on the system. The option is given, but when I say YES, it continues to the next screen with no processing. On my running 6.3 box the entire system is searched and many files are added to the list to be tar'ed. Does anyone else experience this same phenomenon? Is there a setting in something like /etc/rc.config someplace that perhaps I have forgotten that I set in 6.3? -Mark -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
I ran into the same problem with 6.4. I believe it may be the yast upgrade from the ftp site. I now have my system back to a state prior to a number of upgrades I applied from the ftp site. So I have yast-1.05-1 installed. The backup routine works just fine now. I have not had a chance to re-apply the upgraded yast to see if that is what was truly causing the problem. There were a few other variables between the two different setups which is why I cannot say for certain yet. Frank gandalf@davesworld.net On Sun, 4 Jun 2000, Mark D. Enzenberger wrote:
