Ah, of course ... thanks for reminding us, Carlos. It's been several years since I last did any serious backups to CD/DVD so I guess I'd forgotten. That being said, I seem to recall also compressing first to reduce the number of disks I was burning and this, coincidentally, also served to preserve the attributes.
This is getting all too complex. Mebe we should go back to 9 track tapes and use tar the way it was intended. ;-) I just back up to a hard drive with cp -a, which works fine. The attributes are preserved and I can easily mount the drive to access all the files. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
