CS> Actually, if you really want to us a new root.lrp, you do have to burn it to a new CD (or boot off a floppy disk containing the new root.lrp). As an alternative, you can add root.lrp to the package list (LRP=root,...), but this is kind of klunky, and I'm not sure a system setup this way would properly backup root.lrp a second time.
Nope, it don't work. I thought I'd try that after I messaged the group, and what I got was 2 listings for root, neither of which would mount the diskette to backup. Even though the destination was the floppy, and it was not mounted, backup failed. CS> Probably the best solution would be to add the contents you wish to backup (ie either the /root directory or the /root/.ssh directory) to a package other than root (like sshd or local) and backup that package. Ah, yet another way to skin the cat.... CS> To add files to a package for backup, simply add the file/directory specifier (shell wildcards are OK) to the /var/lib/lrpkg/<package>.list file. If you want to include the files in a partial backup, you'll need to add them to the /var/lib/lrpkg/<package>.local file as well. See the CD-ROM readme for details on the <package>.local file format, although you probably just need to add an "I" in front of the filespec you used in the <package>.list file (ie "I <filespec>") for the <package>.local file.
