How about this gesture: star -c -xdev -acl -link-dirs level=0 -C / . \ | gzip | growisofs -Z /dev/sr0=/dev/fd/0 To be checkread by: gunzip </dev/dvd | star -t -v (If this shall produce a system recovery backup then it has to be done in single user mode resp. from a booted rescue system.) How would above gesture look with cdrecord for DVD media ? (No disk buffer, single pass, ready for making use of star's fault tolerance options ...)
