I'm looking for a way to make a network backup of an install, and restore that to another box with a different size disk.
tomsrtbt would work fine if it supported reiser filesystems, because I'm using them too -- I would boot the floppy, mount and copy to device from nfs. rsync seems an important tool for restoring images too. the debian mkrescue program seems close to what I need, if only to get a shell where I can format a disk and rsync an nfs (or maybe with ssh), unfortunately I don't see doc on making a root filesystem, and of course the destination machine has a blank disk. I'm about to experiment and reverse engineer the bf2.4 install floppies. But just because I could not find a suitable application already made doesn't mean there isn't one. Any suggestions? // George -- GEORGE GEORGALIS, System Admin/Architect cell: 347-451-8229 Security Services, Web, Mail, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Multimedia, DB, DNS and Metrics. http://www.galis.org/george -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
