This is what I currently use: But I dont have room for two archives, and
this method doesnt keep versions.  Trying to keep incrementals using
this has proven to be a disaster.

Again, checkout dar.  It is specifically designed for doing
differential backups.  As an example:

# full backup
dar --create /media/backups/20060513 --empty-dir -H0 --nodump -O -N -g /

# differntial/incremental backup
dare --create /media/backups/20060514 --empty-dir -H0 --nodump -O -N \
   --ref /media/backups/20060513 -g /
