when you restore from tape... it assume that debian is already running
on that disk ???
- restoring the old backup from tape onto the new disk might
require intervention before allow the old config on tape to
overwrite the new version that is running that is reading the tape
- make sure the new deb install is the same as on tape ???
w/o any new updates yet ??
- keep multiple versions of tape ...
- monthly tapes, weekly tapes, daily tapes,... etc.etc..
( backup disks in my case ... i dont use tapes )
