Thanks John
can I use tar to backup to a memory stick as well. Maybe I must rather use a memory stick, what do you think?
Tar does not care what the target media is, so either should work. I have a disk in an external case which has both USB and Firewire interfaces. I use it for backup all the time. I can stack 3 or 4 full system backups on a 40 gig disk using Bru (which is specifically designed for backup). There are also some Graphical programs (kdar) if you want, but you said command line. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
