My painless backup strategy is I have a mondorescue set that gets updated every six months or so and I have a rsync mirror on an external usb HD that gets updated at least weekly. I have a little script that mounts the usb drive, rsyncs everything and then unmounts the drive. -- "The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it." - Thomas Jefferson
