Re: Help with data transfer please

Hi!
This sounds perfect for me!
Could you please tell me how or what directories I need to back
up to keep the system intact and (perhaps) how to do it? My last effort at
upgrading from 7.1 to
7.2 was somewhat of a disaster, necessitating my removeal of more
directories then
necessary, I'm sure.

I'd sure appreciate it if you could outline for me what to do.
Thanks!
