Hi,
Is it possible to convert the backup to iso image and can restore complete HDD.
I know it is listed in limitation of Backuppc.
But we are ready to work and participate in development for above topic.

Best way I've found is to make /boot a small RAID1 (e.g. below is
/dev/md0) on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1, then your lilo conf just has to
have these lines:
boot=/dev/md0
raid-extra-boot=/dev/sda,/dev/sdb
And if the sda disk dies, it will still boot of sdb and use the md0 to boot.
Just thought I

Yeah, the 9550SX's need 2.6.14.. so if you're using an older distro that
doesn't have 2.6.14 on it's installer, you're in for a world

With linux software RAID, the partitions don't have to be the same size

Hi all,
I have setup a software raid5 array consisting of 3 sata hard drives with a
small boot partition at the beginning of the first disk. Therefore the setup
is as follows:

thx for the idea, but this is not possible. backuppc is mandatory a
debian-box.
But there is a OSX Box in the net, too. Maybe I could mount the
OS9-Volumes and backup it from there... no bad idee at
Hi all,
We have two Windows XP hosts that sometimes reboots while backuppc is
backing up datas from these hosts.
The backup method chosen on both hosts is rsyncd.
It seems that the problem occurs while running a X11 server on these hosts.
Has anyone ever seen this problem ?
Thanks,
Alain

is there a way to backup Mac OS9 Clients? I could not find anything
