P.S. Note that the path to the other disk will not be sdx. Adjust this
to the name of the other disk. Needless to say, it is very important
the mount command does not fail.

I strongly suggest the reinstall option. Copying all with “cp -a”
works, but is a waste.
sudo mount /dev/sdx

Gottfried,
One way to do this is to use images to copy the entire hard drive or individual

Hi,
I am not planing to leave Guix.
But with Guix I can’t use my Scanner
and I need my scanner regularly

We failed a beginner who is absolutely dedicated to free software.

Hi Gottfried,
yes, making a backup is good.
You will want to backup the Guix configuration files and your data.
So probably this means you should copy /etc/config.scm and the files in
your home directory.
You could plug in an ext4-formatted external disk and copy the files
with the “cp -a” comm
Hi,
I have on one harddisk Guix installed,
on a second harddisk GNUinOS.
I want to reinstall GNUinOS
and may be later on the same harddisk,
on which Guix resides, reduce the size of the harddisk
and install Trisquel on a second partition on it.
To be on the save side
I would like to copy... m
