Feature added by: Kim Leyendecker (openLHAG) Feature #312257, revision 1 Title: Snapshot/recovery feature with keeping apps openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Kim Leyendecker (openlhag) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Dear developers! Dear users! Have a look at this picture: http://i.computer-bild.de/imgs/3/3/2/3/4/4/3/Windows-8-Das-sind-die-geheimen... Such a recovery function would be nice for openSUSE 12.1/12.2 and would give openSUSE an advantage against the whole linux-distros and even Mac OS X (Windows will implementate it soon...) But it also will benefit for the users. If you delete some config-files and clear my trash-folder, I can easy reset my system to the early post-installation time BUT, at the same time, keep all my private stuff like photos, music, mails, documents and even code files. Wouldn´t be cool to have such a feature? The only thing which prevent this coding-work by myself is the fact, that my knowledge in C and C++ is very limited and can´t solve such a big project. But we get excellent programmers @Novell/SUSE and our community, so I think it would be a nice feature for the next openSUSE release! Use Case: destroyed system - easy recovering - keeping private stuff alive Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Because it´s cool and I want it :D No seriously, because it would it make easy to our users to recover a system and keeping their stuff. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312257
