What I can't find is an equivalent of the ext[34] "dump/restore" package to dump data to an external backup device. Is 'tar cf --acls --selinux --xattrs /external/fs.dump' as good as it gets, or is something else recommended? --==_Exmh_1358453135_1911P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.13 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iQIVAwUBUPhZjwdmEQWDXROgAQLKHhAAtddys/v5N2lULTfwQmDn0eVRKmIBG481 zJIwP/NGwhNc1klbxb8zOPBEC7WCTiLy76XUBjIpZ/Qc2QOwQuUvmOmHIZXwv3Gy hmsoRgunu6WR4qd954cjQUpiqQVDznMdHmmCVroawrqZFUsKN2rFkNF3MWLo0rdd z4Mi+uKKw93SJ41PmT973WFdbIB7jWfg2q7HRZcuGvkk/aLG9i2XrqAPKDMY35F/ z8I42Ye/MncNbS6drr/6YhJzvuBKK7NaXIH+E1n1Sy7YfbwIFlETmACKdBS1LKD5 MUHirj+rCTw3ldi7TB1iu//1sXLX81TcNuEkzkTeWxP8/NLlT32xIYV7iRMlOXZ/ cA3rykBKVTtPj1N5I19Zg0WD2JRCK3UB2883bF2d+LqNaBnmezJfSA0Puu3pYqsr cQwwWMfOfJ5laWngy1sc72J6cON0hU+ON+TbGrOvdhyNgi56DB+3N9g28B9NlJ0J o3IoV14+laIOySE+7dPIgB4lKHQQFJu5Z3UHgTl3V/TV1V0Y64i18dUqh1i21t+R jvdng4NykDlr5ZA3CizjEq7P0SdDtXbC6IBzhGdCxtWHn6j1Yu6BqDg9aitHO88v SpXQRn/VdR/+JpeQU6srZslETHSogYJd/1DtzBMA3QRwSxP4FrAwS4EDaloKK/ce iY2zbdOw5m0= =Vt4t -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1358453135_1911P--
