I have a Fedora 15 hard drive that crashed and I want save the Users files.
I have a Fedora 20 Live Cd on the computer and I can read the users home directory.
I want to do a tar -cvf on the Users home directory and temporyly store it on my PC until I do a complete install of fedora 20 on the crashed drive.
I'm going to remove the hard drive from the crashed computer to my PC and tar -cvf from there and tempory store the tar file there until I make the new install.
But what I'm concerned about is that Root will change the owner of the Tar files. after i do the new install it will have the same user on the crashed drive.
Then I will put the user files back onto the new Fedora 20 install. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
