I have a triple boot system, w98 Mdk 9.2 and Mandriva 2006.
I have had no success fixing menudrake in 2006. I discovered I have killed MCC, that won't launch any more. It's a long sad tail, so I decided its time to install a fresh system, something new to play with...
W98 and Mdk 9.2 are fine. 2k6 is ( was ) my main system. Before I install, I like to make copies of many of the configuration files, just in case I can't get something working right away. It also saves a lot of time re-figuring out things like what sound module to modprobe. So, here is a list of things I have made copies of in my /home directory.
My question, what may have I overlooked? Suggestions, please.
Already backed up...
- Firefox bookmarks
- fstab
- I piped lsmod and lspci to files
- For NFS hosts.allow hosts.deny exports
- For samba smb.conf
- xorg.conf
- ifcfg-eth0
- resolv.conf
- menu.lst
- piped df command to a file
- made a backup of the .kde directory and contents
I will format the / partition and do a clean install.
