I have seen advice on listservs not to back up to a CD ROM. I never understood why. Why is it a bad idea to use CDROMS as storage media?
In my experience, the problem is reliability I made a complete backup to DVD. Immediately afterwards, I verified the backup, and everything was fine. Three months later, I tried to do a restore, and found that about half the DVDs had developed read errors. So now I don't trust CDs or DVDs anymore -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
