Backing Up Entire System & Restoring.
Usually I just
Re-install bare Arch and
But my query is, Is there any way to skip installing bare system always and restore my system ?
I want to backup my arch like we backup Android from CWM or TWRP.
Is it possible ? If yes, then how ?
Plus, how can I backup my system to my raspberry pi connected in same network ?
tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt /then I just copy backup tar in my other drive or external drive.
Re-install bare Arch and
tar xvpfz backup.tgz -C /and everything is restored!

Kaustubh KatdareAre you talking about incremental backup solution? If yes, search for 'incremental backup linux' and you'd find a ton of software that lets you do that. I've not used any yet. I backup all the important files to Amazon. -
Abhishek RawalNah not incremental.
Like I said, I used to do incremental backup as shown above.
What I really want is backup of my current system in an iso or tar. So, if I want to change HDD, I can just restore in new HDD without reinstalling bare arch. -
Ashraf HZHi Abhishek, what you need is to do an image backup. Try checking out Clonezilla. As for backing up from Raspi, it may be possible using Clonezilla SE (Server Edition) to remote backup and restore across the network.
