Hello, I need to keep 2 portables synchronzied, particularly the /home/* files and the various ebuilds that are installed need to be the same.
To Sychronize the /home/ files, I found unison. Any commnents or other recommendations? AS far as keeping the installed packages /ebuilds/ concurrent, in some sort of semi-automated method, I'd settle for a script I could run that would check the installed packages, on both portablesand give a list of packages on the one that are not ont he second machine. Kind of like a 'diff for ebuilds' that would list the missing packages on the second portable. The ideas is to always have the older, second portable ready to go in case the first portable has issues (hardware or software), or the environment is particularly lacking in industrial hygiene, so as to only risk damage to the older portable on an optional basis. Ideas and comments are welcome. James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
