Setup: I use to have a separate test box - now I'm using VirtualBox I have about 10 external programs that I need to install and test 1) If I install 11.0 in vbox (minus the first level configuration, like the sound card, printer) with nothing special, will it be the same as on a separate box ? 2) Next to load the proper repositories and install the 10 external programs and test. 3) How can I backup 11.0 (minus /home) and overlay onto 10.3 ? (Backup and restore directories?)
