Hello!
This question is not about backing up your data; like git, photos & videos etc.
I have a Lemmy server running Linux Mint and I wonder if there could be a way to backup like the OS data (and installed packages) so when the mobo fries (for example) I can just back it up into a spare server (installing Mint)?
Obviously the premise is that I can backup that important stuff correctly.
I’m asking because I’m a Linux noob and was confronted with the Mint backups and rollbacks. Very smooth BTW, for a virgin system anyways. Also because I hate installing and configure stuff (like Lemmy docker + nginx) and would love knowing the downtime would be minimal.
So sort of having a hardware backup.
Thank you!
I’ll play around with it, cloning a disc shouldn’t be that hard :-)
