I have spent a lot of time configuring my computer: shell scripts, path definitions, video settings, as well as lots of programs. The disk is ext3 formatted.
I would like to 1) move everything important to a different computer and and/or 2) transfer it all to a virtual machine that could be run in multiple locations, backed up, snapshotted, etc.
I suspect that I could start by just copying the whole directory, but I'd appreciate it if anyone knows a more optimal solution.
Thanks,
David
