Decided to rebuild my PowerBook today, a periodic defluff of the hard disk. This is only the second time I’ve rebuilt OS X from scratch so I had to do a little research.
I googled for ‘What to back up on OS X’ and various similar phrases and found very little that -
- Wasn’t selling backup software
- Told you exactly what to backup
- Wasn’t using some overly complex method that seemed pointless
So I knocked up a quick list so that I wouldn’t miss files when I did the rebuild. As I had the list I turned it into a guide. I’ll upload this guide tomorrow.
