Swift

Macbook Air 11" purchased for travel, but Julie bonded with it and I ended up bonding with Plover so Swift was Julie's computer. She has a Chromebook now but neither of us think much of it.

Backups via Time Machine

Install Netatalk 3 on Debian server. It's only a little painful.

Mount afp://bellman/TimeMachine using Cmd-K and Guest access from Finder.

Run these commands on the Mac in a terminal

defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1
sudo tmutil setdestination /Volumes/TimeMachine

Create the sparse bundle file and copy it to the TimeMachine volume. See directions elsewhere. You name it with your Mac computer's hostname and MAC number. Open Time Machine from System Preferences and set it up.

For some reason Swift could not find the Time Machine volume, maybe the above commands failed? On Stellar I did not need them, everything was configurable from Time Machine itself.
