nice snippet, I will have to try this.
excellent!
you can back everything up as user by using root privilege sudo -i
I know this is not recommended, but have you tried backing up as root?

The idea here is create this backup... store it to an external disk source such as a networked PC or portable HD... (example:...
that maybe the problem... may I ask why your partition is encrypted?
uninstall any apps you don't want then take the backup... otherwise backup all of your data and perform a clean install, then restore just data :example home dir
you shouldn't have any issues if you exclude boot and fstab

Take Care
Hi Nightwalker07,
You could try installing virtual box and install a test VM, then restore from there and see if it works.
yes... it is and if the UUID do not match up, then you will have problems booting that partition
Glad to hear you got it working
are you making sure that you are using "--exclude"
That should work
no problem

I had the exact same problem make sure you exclude the /boot directory and you won't get this error anymore after restoring
I take this back...
