Five days ago I suffered a TOTAL disaster and my primary HDD died. Luckily I did a Full Backup on 29 December and incrementals automatically since then so have all the duplicity files needed to restore.

I had to reinstall Linux Mint 17 from scratch and have installed Duplicity OK using Software Manager.

I KNOW that I used a GUI back in December to set up my incremental backups and start the initial backup but I am now going mad as I seem unable to find it now even though I have ' installed' duply which I assume should be it - but I can't find any 'duply' on the computer.

I could try to run things in Terminal but am a little uncertain of the modifications to "restore <target_url> <source_dir>"

The source is a directory OK but not sure what I should have as the 'target'. Here is the first two volumes shown in the 'duplicity-full.20141228T230157Z.manifest' file so is it 'home' or 'michael' or something else. I would prefer to use the GUI if I can find it :-(

Hostname michael-Dell-DM051

Volume 1:
    StartingPath   .  
    EndingPath     "home/michael/.google/picasa/3.0/drive_c/Documents\x20and\x20Settings/michael/Local\x20Settings/Application\x20Data/Google/Picasa2/db3/bigthumbs_0.db" 338

What am I missing or what have I done wrong??? ANY assistance greatfully received.        Mike.
