I finially have my FC6 installation the way i like it.... I am sure at some point in the future, I am going to mess it up though. In Windows there is the System Restore capability. How can I achieve the same effect under FC6. That is, roll back changes that did not work out the way I assumed etc. Basically, undoing dumb stuff. The best way would be 'Don't do dumb stuff" but being rather new to linux, the fact that what I am about to do is dumb, does not occur to me until after I am through doing it....
You don't really need a "system restore" in linux; settings are all stored in files you can back up. There's no registry or anything like that. Since you're new to linux, let me direct you to dd tar pax star which are all ways to create backups easily. Might not really be what you're looking for, or maybe you already know about them, but I'm pointing them out just in case.
