Tar does not have a max. filesize. It simply does sequential reads/writes.
I feel comfortable about using tar. A primitive way to do my backup would be to make 2 tar-files: photos + documents 4,4 GB mail +.kde, 3,5 GB and burn them on each their DVD. Can I simply do that? If tar is OK with files around 4,5 GB is there anything special I have to worry about when burning the DVD (settings, formats etc)? Thanks! Janus -- Roskilde University, Denmark.
