With either of these methods I assume you must be root or can it be done as user?
Also what about backing up one step further to either a second drive or to CDRW? Can tar files span or must they be split? I have a second drive for win32 with extra space for instalation insurance but I would prefer to use CDRW.

<SNIP> If I may jump in, here... I use the backup that comes w/SuSE (9 Pro), and I have created a b/u profile which includes changed files in /etc, /usr/local & /home (and one can also choose which places not to b/u). It will span several CD-Rs or CD-RWs ...or one could feasibly b/u to a smb share. Once the profile is created, one only has to start the process. - -- ...CH Avoid doing business with 'The Link' ISP.
