Deja-dup Backup
deja-dup is a nice way to graphically backup your soas live USB/SD
Déjà Dup is a simple backup tool. It hides the complexity of doing backups the
'right way' (encrypted, off-site, and regular) and uses duplicity as the
backend.
Features:
• Support for local or remote backup locations, including Amazon S3 • Securely encrypts and compresses your data • Incrementally backs up, letting you restore from any particular backup • Schedules regular backups • Integrates well into your GNOME desktop
Installation
In sugar-terminal:
su yum install duplicity deja-dup
