There is probably others.. but like I said.. I toasted my defaults a while ago .

For the copy.. is that in the debian side?? You would run:

Code:

cp -rp /media/mmc1/path/to/home/user /home/user

Just make sure that the current maemo /home/user isn't mounted over the top of the source (IE: If the source is Debian's Home.. umount debians home first.. umount /debian/home/user)
