I thought you were suggesting making a backup of the installation to nfs mounted partition. That way i could tar -cvjf the whole stuff off, getting around the local space limitations to form the tbz2 as well as saving on the space requirement on the remote box. I can definitely mount an nfs partition but <sulking> it would'nt be as fast as a local reiser disk </sulking> -- sreangsu ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
