- | ====== System Rescue ====== | ||
- | |||
- | One of the many reasons for using Linux is to protect yourself against loss of data and system data. Obviously nothing can insure you 100% against either of these, but on Linux there is the advantage of having control over the system to the point that if it is possible to recover a downed system, you are able to recover at least your data. | ||
- | |||
- | This wouldn't be a chapter about system recovery without the obligatory admonishment that the best prevention against data disaster is backing-up your data in the first place. It may be obligatory, but that doesn't mean it's any less true. If you want to guarantee that your data is safe, **back it up**. | ||
- | |||
- | With that said, these are the different steps you can take to recover a system, in the order of the least serious to the most serious. | ||
