[ale] Full filesystem backup to CD-R

[Stephen Turner]

i must say i had this problem too once, all i can say is dont back up
anything that can be recoverd from cds, i.e. mp3 cds, games, linux
installs. but take everything else and put it on a seperate partition,
like install it there, make an iso (easy storage) and throw it on a
different hd the cheepest way to back things up these days is on ide hard
disks, and not the externals either, tho they are fun and neat :) they are
too expensive for this. just get a 20-40 gig drive and back up what you
dont want to lose there, keep mp3's on cds, and keep your os on a cd :D
this makes installs easier ;) well so i think. and make sure you keep that
back up ide unmounted at all times! :-p
