[ Ubuntu-BD ] I Wanna Backup

[Kowsheek Mahmood]

Hello,
Thank you for replying :D

Thing is I mainly want to backup file I download using the Synaptic Package
Manager so that if I reinstall Ubuntu somewhere I can have my updates ready.
This is a requirement because the download speed I get is not very high (I
use Grameen) and I am not using a download accelerator in Ubuntu.

As I was told earlier, backing up the /etc folder should suffice I hope.

Thank you.
