16For a Linux server which has no high-capacity tape drive fitted but
17which does have access to a CD or DVD burner (either on-board or via
18another networked machine), and plenty of spare disc for some large
19temporary files, a useful and convenient alternative is to use
20multiple CDs instead.

22backup is a script which makes use of standard unix utilities such as
23find, sed, and cpio, plus a small file-splitter called fsplit to
24create a series of cpio archive fragments totalling about 3500MB that
25contain all the files of interest on my system. The fragment size is
26currently set to around 640MB (adjustable via the script) so they can
27fit onto normal CDs. The chunks are automatically named by backup by
28appending 000, 001 etc onto a date-derived file name base. The script
29also provides for full or partial recovery from the CD set, plus the
30listing of archive contents in long or short format.
