[Sugar-devel] Sora wants ALL Journal entries saved to USB

[Gonzalo Odiard]

A simple way to backup all the journal is in the terminal
zip (or tar) the directory .sugar

Also, I don't know if will work with the version of sugar they are using,
but you can try the activities:
Backup http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4326
and
Restore http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4327
