Disaster recovery program?
A few months ago I remember reading about a great disaster recovery/ backup program that could backup Linux and windows but at the time I didn't have SuSE 8.0 so I couldn't try it (the SuSE that I had was too old). Now that I have SuSE 8.0 I can't remember the name of that software. I tried the archives for the last few months but no luck. Does anyone remember such software? Damon Register

~ maybe, Mondo ? That was it. Thanks. Now the problem is that their site at Sourceforge is not working. I click on 1.13 to get the latest and I only get a "page not found" error. Too bad.

There are other links including the one below that you can get all the files from. It is still in work, and getting better all the time.

cddump at http://www.joat.ca/software/cddump.html will back up your linux and windows to cdrom if you have your /c mounted. Just type cddump / It's not a full back-and-restore solution though, you need to boot from a floppy to copy the cd's back in. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation

Dumb question. Can I use cdrecord and therefore cddump to write to a network cdrom drive, or must it be installed on the linux machine to work? NIck
Check out Mondo... http://www.microwerks.net/~hugo/ Creates bootable ISO images (and will burn them to CD as well) that makes a very nice recovery tool. - Herman On Mon, 12 Aug 2002, Nick Selby wrote: ->On Monday 12 August 2002 16:56, zentara wrote: ->> On Mon, 12 Aug 2002 09:15:09 -0400 ->> ->> cddump at ->> http://www.joat.ca/software/cddump.html ->> will back up your linux and windows to cdrom ->> if you have your /c mounted.

I'm not sure, there is one obvious problem though, when the program fills 1 cd and prompts for another, who will do it? Then there are the buffer underflow problems on a network. Maybe you should look at hdup http://www.miek.nl/projects/hdup/hdup.shtml It works over a network. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
