I have debian running on a "headless" system. I'd like to back theentire

Clonezilla etc are out). I've tried mondoarchive but it usuallybails out
before it completes the backup.

Are there any suggestions?  A simple script would be nice.

Not open source but free, I use the vmware converter to clone liveLinux boxes to ESXi.

I've had no problems with both Debian and Slackware. - Niles
