Noah, I might just do that. I've spent a lot of time struggling with the
backup script, which only offered the advantage of having unarchived files,

Ok, first: Why it doesn't work I simply don't know.
You should test if this is a problem with find, or the egrep command,
cpio or cat by making verbose output into a own log file.
But maybe you should not use this (in my opinion) unusual command "find
/ -print ...". Instead use tar, like:
tar -z
