@LnxSlck TBH I dropped Slackware once I graduated beyond a dialup connection and found out I could get more productive distros (cough--Original RedHat--cough) online instead of relying on CDs bundled with magazines :p

@jokerdino but why can't i have an ordered number list?
The Ubuntu Cloud OS isn't really meant for VPSs --- it's more like when one or a few people have central control of many machines, like universities, industrial labs, etc.
You'd have problems giving individual control to people.
@msPeachy They're the automatically generated ones (like mine). It probably just turned out that way. (In other words, as stueng says, we're lazy and haven't uploaded our own.)
The OP has edited this question to request that it be closed (it turned out to be about Windows, so the OP has posted a question at Super User). So we should go ahead and close it:
I recently restored a Toshiba laptop using its recovery partition, which claims to revert Windows 7 "back to factory settings". It booted up, shut down just fine. I opted to restore to ~100GB of the disk, leaving the other partition blank.
I then installed Ubuntu 12.04 on the other partition (...
Umm, @jokerdino, looks like she's pasting mailing list questions with her answers or something totally weird/random. Tell her to read the FAQ and STOP. FOR. THE. LOVE. OF. GOD.
Guys do you know what I don't seem to get? The focus levels. Desktop is at level 0, then, after this, there are infinite levels. For example, if you have 100 open applications (none minimized) it will be the one behind the other. So, you will have a total of 101 levels. If you show a notification, it will go to level 102, and if you open dash it will be on the 103 and if you open a fullscreen gameit will be 104. Okay, I assume this thinking is totally wrong. Anyone has a clue?
@msPeachy It's okay to ask your own question and then answer it, but it seems like she's pasting questions from a mailing list/forum and then answering them herself, which is okay too, but not 7-8 such poorly asked questions every hour!
I have Installed lots of Packages.
Customised some of drivers.
I have also Tweaked some Driver files myself.
Now i want to reinstall my system. But i don't want to loose any tweaks or any package. I won't be having Internet connection on my new System.
How can i do this.
Making images. I only...
Can i clone 320gb hardrive with Ubuntu installed onto a 8gb PenDrive.
I have installed Ubuntu on 320gb Hardrive, with several packages installed. My toltal installation size if only 500mb. Can i make a image of this to restore it later.
@jrg: this may be a canonical employee (says @jokerdino), but she appears to be posting questions from a mailing list, without any editing, and then kinda-sorta-answering at the rate of 7-8 per hour. thoughts?
@jrg Well, what bothers me is not the rate or who she is, but that the titles/questions are often poor quality for AU, and some of her answers are forum-y/mailing-list-y...
Hmm, upvoted the ones I saw at -1. @jokerdino someone needs to edit those titles at least. And please remind her to accept the answers after the 48h timeout! Who is this lady anyway...?
