Linux Help please. Will this work?

Hi

I am using the latest raspberry pi hard drive image. Unfortunately I can only run on a wired network connection and I have lost the use of  the mouse. I have set up samba and can access the pi from my Windows network. 

I am thinking of setting up another Pi and hard drive from scratch.

If I do this I was hoping to be able to copy www directory and timestore directory complete from old pi onto my windows server and then write them back to new pi thus not losing all any of my data, feeds, modules and dashboards. Will it work?

Regards

Ian

Hello Ian

Yes if you copy the timestore directory and do a mysql export of all tables on your mysql data on the old pi and import it on the new pi that will work ok.
