Howdy all, Just an odd question...I'm planning on creating a backup computer just in case my main system fails. In the past I've just cut and pasted every line in the perfect setups...I'm wondering is there a faster way. I noticed that all of the commands are surrounded or enclose in special boxes. Is there a way to cut and paste all the text inside each box and excute them all as one command? This would really cut down on the installation time! If not the old fashion way works just as well but slower of coarse. Willebanks
Some commands require interaction, and especially the apt-get commands (if you use Debian or Ubuntu) should be run one by one. If you want to save work, you can set up one system, and then you make an image of it and restore this image on other machines: http://www.howtoforge.com/howto_linux_systemimager http://www.howtoforge.com/dedicated_server_backup_restore_systemimager
