Take a look at rsnapshot. It's a script that uses a little-known feature of rsync to do disk-to-disk backups that are very economical of space. After the first full backup it does the equivalent of full backups forever but uses no more space (or bandwidth) than a series of incrementals would use.http://www.rsnapshot.org/
Funny, I was going to recommend something very similar that I was using for a while: http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/ It seems to work fairly well, although I stopped using it, because instead what I do is simply rsync to a backup box and use tar zcf for full backups (once a week) and simply add --newer-mtime 'yesterday' for daily incrementals.
