Or want to restore the bookmarks to another computer that has just been reinstalled and don't know what to do?

This method is actually the most convenient and comprehensive.

After you logon with your Gmail account, 
If you still not backup the first time, you will sync the bookmark to google and next time you login with another PC, the bookmark will come back







2. The following methods are applicable to Windows XP users: 
Please go to "C:\Documents and Settings\UserAccount\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default" folder, 
Then copy the "Bookmarks" file. 
Note that "UserAccount" is the account you are currently logging in.


Windows Vista or Windows 7 or windows 8 or windows 10 users:
Please navigate to "C:\Users\UserAccount\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default" folder,

PS: If the Default folder cannot be found, it may be in a folder like Profile 1. 

and then copy the "Bookmarks" file.
Note that "UserAccount" is the account you are currently logging in.

Recovery:
 
When you want to restore, copy the backed up files to the same folder on the new computer. 
Finally, restart Google Chrome and the bookmark will come back again.

Set the static IP for fedora or redhat

I believe friends who have used Linux Fedora/redhat know that it is easy to set a fixed network in the GUI, but they don't know how to modify it in the text mode.   Setting a static IP for the Fedora system has the advantage of not using DHCP to assign an IP.  It is easier to find the computer you want, especially in a large network. It is most convenient to set a static IP for the computer.   The static IP network address is the most suitable setting for SERVER.
