Hi
I would suggest to delete the home during the shutdown process in case is in filetool and persistent.




no state no jail

jls:
same story for persistent opt

roberts:
I think this has been brought up before.

My position on this matter is that the two files that control backups, /opt/.filetool.lst and /opt/.xfiletool.lst
are under the control of the user.

From a system standpoint I would not delete anything from either one. As the user of your system you can wish to include/exclude any file or directory that you choose. It would become very confusing if the 'standard' varied.

Just because one chooses to run with some persistent options does not mean that those areas should never be in a backup.

junan:
maybe u need to reconfigure your xfiletool.lst
or remove some directory link from your filetool.lst
backup always important  :)

jls:
U friends are not undestanding what I wanted to intend.
The system shouldn't touch filetool or xfiletool, but it should look inside filetool to see if the user is saving his home, if yes, during the shutdown process the home should be deleted from where it is: hard drive, pen drive. This is just in case of persistent home.
Infact, in case of non persistent home, the home is in ram and on shutdown automatically vanishes.
I use persistent home cause my pcs are old and also for not having data loss in case of black out.
Bu I want my system to be portable, so I included /home/tc in my filetool. The problem is when I repoweron 1 of my pcs, the home inside mydata is mixed with the one that's already in my hard disks, and this is not good.
Am I clear now?

sorry again for my english, which now is better then before, anyway
