If you have installed stuff locally, then backing up (or making a list of the stuff in) /usr/local and /opt might be a good idea. /usr/bin, /usr/sbin and /usr/share are directories used by the distribution's RPM packages. If you're not intending to backup the installed system as well, then you should do a full backup. -- Jussi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
