Shouldn't be a problem I think... Just copy the whole disk :-)

Well, I'm always feeling a bit strange about the fact that a public
machine prone to frequent crashes is also used for the wiki...

On the other hand, the wiki seems to need a fast machine, so using it
for the wiki exclusively would be a waste...

Not sure what the best approach is. Ideally, they should run in two
distinct VMs sharing the hardware :-)
