This might be the last part of Debian Squeeze installation story. In this part I'm going to describe about what I did for backup.
At first, to backup the entire debian system, we can use "dd".
The command is like this:
dd if=/dev/sda4 of=/path/to/backup-`date +%s`.img
To restore, boot from some place else (live CD or the other OS) and then run:
dd if=/path/to/backup.img of=/dev/sda4
Here, /dev/sda4 is the '/' partition where debian is installed.
Example:
momotaro@debbie:~/Downloads$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda4 9.2G 5.3G 3.5G 61% /
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /lib/init/rw
udev 1.9G 264K 1.9G 1% /dev
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda6 187G 40G 138G 23% /home
/dev/sdb1 466G 423G 43G 91% /media/hd
momotaro@debbie:~/Downloads$
To backup personal file, I use rsync.
rsync -av /home/momotaro/Pictures/ /media/hd/Pictures
rsync -av /home/momotaro/Music/ /media/hd/Music/iTunes/Music
rsync -av /home/momotaro/Documents/ /media/hd/Documents
The next step would be to run this backup script within a useful scheduled time, like weekly or maybe less.
