Is there anything similar that will work with DVD+RWs?

Hi Jack,
apt-get install cdbackup
This will work with any archiver, so you can use GNU Tar's incremental
backup features to get what you want. I've only used it a few times,
but I haven't encountered any real problems yet. One minor gotcha: be
sure to insert the first CD *before* starting cdbac

Hi folks,
It's time for me to work out a good backup system. I am looking for a reliable software which is able to do incremental backup to a CD-RW. A search thro' the net throws up a lot but which one is best for Debian?
Would appreciate some suggestions
Cheers

Chris,
I found the mail I alluded to before. It is also from linux-kernel...
You can see it at: http://old.lwn.net/2001/0503/a/lt-dump.php3
He seems to say that you can get a corrupted backup regardless of
whether you use CD-R(W) or not.

He doesn't use dump:

Chris,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Linus himself said that using
dump on live (mounted) filesystems was a bad idea. I'll see if I can

You might like to consider 'partimage'. It creates a compressed

Actually, I haven't seen any data at all. My father told me that he

The point of that was that CD-Rs were not a good storage medium for

Large hard drives are really, really cheap. If you can spend $100 and

Add more space. Make backups to it, then chunk them to CD-R at your
leisure. I use flexbackup with afio for mak

My Debian box has an internal scsi CD burner.
I would like to periodically (weekly ?) backup my /etc (around 8 megs) and
some (not all) of my /home directories.
Can I setup some task to perform such backups on the CD (multiple sessions ?
multiple files ?) until it's filled up ?

Though I kept good notes, it took much effort to restore my current
debian linux system with all the apt-get's and other downloads after a
hard disk crash wiped out everything. With Windows I always had to be
prepared for system crashes and regularly used DriveImage to copy my
