Saving - optional: Am I doing it right?
Posted: Tue 11 Feb 2020, 15:31
Some older directions such as http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=497458 had the user making changes to an rc.shutdown file. It also mentions "Go to "Menu->System->Puppy Event Manager->save session->save Interval", and set the value to zero [actually 0] minutes, and OK that."
I have done the latter only and that gives me the option to save or not without making any other file changes.
I am using BionicPup. I have a usb frugal install with the install in a single folder which I can save elsewhere to back up.
I have a back up from a good restore point. My goal in this change is so that if I mess something up, I can copy the back up over top of the main file and exit without saving in order to be at the restore point on the next boot.
Is my approach the right one? Is there a a better way to set a restore point and go back to it easily?
I don't want to do any more playing around until I am more clear on my restore strategy.
Thank you.
