Is your goal to back up the built-in drive to several 1394 drives? if the 1394 drives are as big or bigger than the built-in, you could just mount the 1394 and use rsync to mirror the built-in to the 1394. After the first time, rsync would be able to bring it up to date very quickly. I haven't messed with the hotplug stuff, but in theory, you could set up a script that did the mount and rsync when you plugged the drive in and sent you an email (or whatever) when it was done. -- Chris Bare [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
