Description

A Linux installation can be backed up, restored, or transferred using tar archives and rsync-based workflows. This is useful for users who want full-system migration or recovery outside a graphical backup suite.

The tool can overwrite system files during restore or transfer operations. Users should verify source, destination, mounted filesystems, exclusions, and backups before running destructive actions.
