'''Déjà Dup provides a nice graphical interface for backing up your SoaS live USB/SD installation'''


[http://launchpad.net/deja-dup Déjà Dup] is a simple backup tool. It hides the complexity of doing backups the

* 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===

===Notes===
* '''Use a dedicated USB device for Backups''' for EACH Live USB device you are working with.
* Keep and mark them in pairs.

* Backs up and restores
/usr/share/sugar/activities
/home/liveuser/Activities
liveOS and syslinux directories
(Overlay-live-xxx (persistence)
OSmin.img Squashfs.img files

* Does Not back up the Sugar Journal

* Use the same soas.iso to make a replacement USB device for Restoration.

* '''Can be sugarized ''' [[Talk:Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation/Variations#How_To_Sugarize_liveusb-creator]] so it will appear as an installed application in the Home view of Mirabelle.

* Sugar Clone, [[Sugar on a Stick/Sugar Clone]], will duplicate a live SoaS installation.
