In a Gentoo system nothing is really standard, so I backup everything |
| 5 |
from / and then have a small exclude list with things like: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
/dev, /proc, /sys, /exports, /var/cache/squid, /srv/BackupPC. |
| 8 |
|

/var contains the most important files on a Gentoo system, if you loss |
| 11 |
the portage installed software information your in a heap of trouble. |
| 12 |
Goes both ways though backup of portages var information is less useful |
| 13 |
without backup of everything installed. |

I'm undecided about /usr/portage, I could save some time backing up |
| 17 |
/usr/portage/distfiles, but it is easily generated content. |

Minimal backup - if your willing to spend the hours on getting thing |
| 22 |
back up and running. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
/etc /root /home /usr/local /var |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
It's possible to make an exclude list for /var as it contains both |
| 27 |
variable data thats important to save and dynamic data that will be |
| 28 |
generated again. |
