If your repositories are explicit for stable, than there shouldn't happen an upgrade to testing or unstable. To restore your Debian stable in the future, IMO the easiest way is to do a backup before upgrading and to restore from such a backup if needed. You can backup any Linux from another Linux, e.g. from a live media, if you're root and run cd /path/to/debian_stable tar czf backup_name.tar.gz * Globbing (here using *) and following links shouldn't be an issue for your setup. And IMO having several backups/snapshots is more safe than syncing backups. Btw. some dirs can be excluded, but IMO this makes a backup unneeded complicated. - Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
