If I make a backup module of some settings and changes using:
Code: Select all
cp -a --parents /home/guest/.config/dconf/* /tmp/mod/
cp -a --parents /home/guest/.cache/dconf/* /tmp/mod/
cp -a --parents /home/guest/* /tmp/mod/
cp -a --parents /home/guest/.mozilla/plugins /tmp/mod/
Can I restore them later with something simple like:
Code: Select all
mloop /mnt/sda6/porteus3.2/modsavedat/mychanges.xzm
cp -a --parents /mnt/loop/* /
uloop

Yup.

That worked perfectly
tome. Thank you.
Unfortunately now I'm faced with the "Cinnamon has crashed" error.
