Sorry if this is a repeat, I couldnt find anything that answred my questions and Im sure its probably something extremly obvious.
On my laptop I have a dual boot with Vista and 12.04. Yesterday I did a backup of /home and stored it on my vista partition then reinstalled 12.04. When I open up the backup utility and chose the restore option I will either get "Restore failed, no items to restore" or a permission denined message. I have tired mulitiple duplicity commands in the terminal with no luck, I can see all the files there, I just dont know how to restore them. I also created a list of installed packages before I reinstalled and I am unable to use that to reinstall the packages. Any help is much appreciated.
