Hi all,

I have a simple question (hopefully!) regarding backups!

I have a Red Hat box with a large capacity IDE tape drive, all working and
backing up data.

If I wanted to back up the entire system as well, as Linux has no problems
with open files and the like, I envisage very few problems backing up the
system as well!

However, I'm not sure about the restore procedure!

Would it be as simple as building a new base Red Hat system, and then just
restoring all the files over the top of this new installation?

Or is it a (windoze-style!) far more complicated scenario than that?

many thanks for any help!

Regards,

Greg Conway.
