In our office at home we have a back up computer for the family computer in the kitchen (so my daughter can do her homework and my wife do her charity work at the same time
).
The machine I upgraded the other day, I would like to exchange it over to become the office computer.
I have just done a full system and users back up of the office computer, Both machines have the same OS.
Can I install all the same programs on the second machine and then copy the backup over from the old one to the new one , then run the backup.
1. Will I end up with a machine that is the same as the old one ?.
2..How can I get a list of extra programs I have installed on the old one ?. without going through synaptic !.
3. Instead of using the back up I used a re-master from the office computer, would that then put my upgraded machine back to a ungraded one as the office one is now ?.
