Re: Does anyone use ZIP disks to backup/restore their system? How?

e files to a seperate zipdisk To restore the system you first restore the tarfile by cat /zip/home.tar.aX >> /tmp/home.tar for each zipdisk (be careful to use the right order or you'll be in serious trouble) Then you can simply do cd / tar xf /tmp/home.tar to restore your homedir Have fun, Wouter

Re: begging.. .(Excluded IRQ3, using IRQ9 now, but still not OK)

/dev/sr0 is simply a link to /dev/scd0 Do /dev/sr0 and /dev/scd0 exist on your system? If not, create the scdX devices with MAKEDEV, link sr0 to scd0 and try again. I recall I had to manually create sr0, and I'm not sure about whether I had to create the scdX devices. HTH, Wouter.

Re: backing up a complete Debian GNU/Linux system
