Hi everyone,
I’m a happy Fedora 38 user on my Surface Go 1.
In fact I’m so happy with it that I just wanted to clone the whole thing with Clonezilla and put it on my girlfriend’s MacBook Pro which has reached end of life support for MacOs.
Sadly on the Surface Go it’s almost impossible to boot from an USB drive (had to rely on windows recovery to do it the first time, might be usb-a to usb-c adaptor related) and I’ll really have to do a clean install on her Mac.
For such situations, I find it crazy that you don’t have an effective graphic tool to fo an easy backup. Especially because Fedora is so great for everything else.
You could say, use Timeshift, but it would mean doing some alterations I’m not at ease with as I don’t want to end up destroying the system I’m trying to backup and clone.
Does anyone know if it’s on the developers roadmap?
I’ve listened to it, but I don’t think it’s so useful from a normal user perspective.
Also I don’t think it’s so difficult find solutions to backup your pictures, documents and music. You can simply do that with kdrive, Dropbox or Google drive.
What’s difficult to find is a way to save your configuration (programs, settings,etc) in a way where you could recover them or just clone them for another computer.
And that’s what I need;-)
