Hi there! My linux crashed and I only have an access to the terminal now. I'm trying to save login information and bookmarks that were saved in the browser. I didn't use an account. So I'm trying to find a location in the linux system where it was saved. I used 'find' command with key words 'mozilla' and 'firefox' to find possible locations but I'm not sure that I covered everything. Maybe someone here knows exactly where I should look. Thank you for you help and advance :)

Copy the entire ~/.mozilla/firefox folder somewhere safe. That contains your profile, or profiles if you have more than one, which contain all your personal data and settings. You can then copy it back when things are back to normal.
