hi ya
gazillion ways to backup a disk...
best is to use tar/cpio, etc...
( dd can be good or bad...you'd need to know what you are copying
http://www.Linux-Backup.net
- lots of free code/examples
if the (new) message is just "device not ready etc"... check your ide
cable and/or
This may be a great time to buy a nice tapedrive and learn the joy of
dump and regular backups. If someone else is footing the bill go for a
dds-4 or vxa drive. Otherwise "beg, borrow or steal" a DDS-1 or 2 and
some tapes. Get a nice new maxtor disk. They're so quiet you can't
even hear it shre
High,
