Virtualbox handles USB devices (like harddisks) good. You can start virtualbox on your windows/linux box, boot your virtual debian, install backuppc and mount the USB device on the backuppc directory :-) (and don't forget to config/backup your /etc/backuppc dir) cheers Kristof ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
