Mondo and Debian

2004-02-22 Thread Christopher Davis
Hello all!

I've been switching from Red Hat to Debian the last 6 months
and have become very partial to Mondo Rescue --
mondorescue.org for backups.  This and Debian do not seem to
like each other too much

What types of software do you use to run backups on Debian
servers to create iso bootable images?

or...Even better -- any one know how to tweak Debian and
Mondo?

Thanks!
Christopher Davis

I've used amanda. Both on a disk and tape system. Works fine for me.

 What exactly do you mean do not seem to like
 each other too much?

 Whilst I haven't tried these there are packages
 for this in stable and
 unstable, so one would image an apt-get install
 mondo would do the trick.

 Dave

I have not been able to get the packages in stable to
work -- they WILL create the backup, but on the restore will
not restore the partition information correctly.  The Mondo
mail list requires usage of up-to-date software -- the
stable version of Mondo is around 1.5 yrs old.

In working with the unstable packages -- everything will
backup great, but the boot cd's will not boot to run the
restore programs.  In correspondence with the Mondo list,
easier compatibility with Debian is on the to-do list.  In
searching many mail list archives, I have found notes on 'it
worked for me', but no such luck for info that would help
get it rolling.

Thanks!
Christopher Davis
