Meidal Cc: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Backup to ISO image? Yeah, the original post was about creating (full?) backups directly as images. Ie. instead of a bacula volume the volume would be an ISO file that he could then burn. What I was asking is if there is any way to mount a bacula volume that was written to disk. The entire thing is one big file. If it's an ISO, then yeah I can mount it on loopback, if it's some proprietary bacula thing then I'd either need baculavolume2iso or an fs driver that would let me mount my bacula volumes. --Joe On Aug 15, 2005, at 4:39 PM, Knut E.
