Next: Compressed backups Up: Backups Previous: Multilevel backups . You want to back up as much as possible. The major exception is software that can be easily reinstalled, but even they may have configuration files that it is important to back up, lest you need to do all the work to configure them all over again. Another major exception is the /proc љ filesystem; since that only contains data that the kernel always generates automatically, it is never a good idea to back it up. ...

... The hotter the gas, the faster they move, and the more energy each of them holds. The free ions and electrons in a plasma behave the same way. Knowing the temperature of the high atmosphere of Earth, or that of the Sun, we can calculate energies expected of ions and electrons found there. However, ions and electrons actually observed in space are often much , much more energetic, and may move at a respectable fraction of the velocity of light (300,000 km/sec or 186,000 miles/sec). ...
