[ALUG] [ubuntu] /home backups

[James Elsey]

Hi

 

Can anyone suggest a good backup procedure whereby I can backup all my
photos/mp3s/videos etc under /home?

 

I could back them up to a separate drive, but I only have old hard disks
(10gbs) and don't really trust them. I'd like to backup onto DVD but my
/home is around 80gb

 

Are there any good compression tools that can compress image files for
backup?

 

I'm on ubuntu 8.04

 

Thanks

 

James Elsey
