Hi Gregory et al, Only Ramon can tell you if you are or aren't an official member, I'm sure he'll answer pretty sure. If you've never filled in the form at http://www.linux.org.mt/membership then you're not a member yet, simply fill in that form to become one.
Will you be attending the AGM? It is going to be held Saturday, 16th October at 09:30am at Megabyte. As for the disk clone, I've just created a script that uses rsync to backup my entire system from computer A to computer B on my network. A folder is created on Computer B with all the files in computer A and I keep three days worth of backups. The question is, should something happen to Computer A, how am I going to restore the backup? In most cases I can just use rsync with the --delete argument to restore the backup, but what if computer A's hard disk fails and I buy a new one. How can I restore the backup then?

Hello All, I am finally back to list with my new adsl connection. Just curious if I was included to the membership list. :-) To clone the disk: after partitioning of second disk use cp -a to copy all data. Later you can update 'image' with rsync. But why don't you use software raid? Some time ago I tried mkcdrec to create CD set with backup. http://mkcdrec.sf.net Cheers, Gregory Smirnov On Thursday 16 September 2004 10:11, Keith Vassallo wrote: > Please note that if you would like to vote or candidate yourself > for election, today is your last chance to become an offical > member of MLUG as all voters/candidates must be members at least > one month before the AGM. _______________________________________________ MLUG-list mailing list [email protected] http://mailserv.megabyte.net/mailman/listinfo/mlug-list
