RE: proper way to back-up both win95 and linux
You can use dump and restore to provide incrementals. One way of doing it is to
do a dump level 0 first, this would do a full backup. Then you next do a level
1 which only backs up what changed since level 0. Then a level 2 which only
dumps what changed since a level 1, etc. Dump also allows you to specify a date
instead of using the date in /etc/dumpdates
