The reason is that I do not want a GUI tool for backups. So what are you using that is on SUSE itself? Or do you run your own script? Have I overlooked some great script that is available?
I use rsync. rsync -avptgoHq --delete-excluded '/home/chris' '/etc' '/boot' '/usr/local' '/opt' /backup
If I understand correctly, this is more a copy then a backup, or does it do recursive backups as well?
I also have the backup drive not mounted during boot, so that when the system crashes, the backup drive will not be corrupted.
I do that as well.
