How to restore the etc and lib

[Arkadiusz Stuka]

Hi,

I want to restore the config (etc and var) on another usb drive. Regarding to the instruction i did : (mount the esos_config and place in to the rsync directory var and etc) but after the reboot config is still old.

Somebody have the proper instruction how to restore the whole configuration?

Thx

Arek

Hi Arek,

Some of those directions are probably a bit dated for modern ESOS
versions... in addition to the "rsync_dirs" directory found in
LABEL=esos_conf, you'll need to copy/move the "etckeeper.git"
directory.

Hi Marc,

Im using the esos version : 3.0.14 , 
i did the fresh install , then extract the backup and copy all folders in to the /mnt/conf, then i did the  conf_sync.sh  + reboot, 

but after that i have still this same config .

If you have a running ESOS instance with the config you want, you
could just tar up /etc etc. and extract that over the new running
instance.
