Hi Flavio,
I realy think backuppc isn't the best choice, see
http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/limitations.html. I've used fsarchiver
to this pourpose and, if it's needed, you can use backuppc in order to back
up files which are modified frequently, as configuration files.
Best Regards,
Rangel Caio
