I download remotely for my parents, and they wish to have a media PC set up in their lounge, as I much prefer remote admin on a Unix based system I will be setting up that HTPC as a Linux system - Question is, will it be easy to port the existing Queue and current downloads from Windows to Linux??
I'm hoping it will be as simple as moving SAB's internal download cache / temp files from one system to another, but I've never explored SAB under windows - will it be this easy? Could someone give me some directions on how to do it so I know what to expect?

Re: Moving SAB from Windows to dedicated Linux box
the download history is stored in a sqlite database, Should be as easy as moving that i think ive never done it though. I would aviod transferring a current queue, Wait until sab is idle ?
Re: Moving SAB from Windows to dedicated Linux box
The "incomplete" folder can be transferred.
Then on the new system, invoke queue reconstruction (Status page).
