[QUOTE="newboyo, post: 1307805, member: 217598"] Hi, I have a little familiarity with Linux fs and am trying to understand the osx fs, specifically if Users - has the user info (equivalent to the /home in linux), what does home (in osx) do? The reason for this question is that I like to have a bootable system backup and a separate backup of my home folder. Therefore I have rsysc'd my home folder. Which folders can I ignore for the system backup (via CCC)? Thanks all New [/QUOTE]
