This special episode is a tutorial about backing up your Ubuntu Linux system. Backing up your system can be a difficult and time consuming process, but there are tools to help. In this tutorial we go into great detail on how you can install, configure, and use a backup program called sbackup. We also recommend several alternative online solutions such as Ubuntuone and Dropbox. We even explain how to format and use an external USB hard drive for your backups. We also introduce AptOnCD, which is a program that will remember and install your custom programs from your current Ubuntu system. This episode is a must for those who want a simple backup solution. Remember to do a backup before it is too late.
