Trying it out now with a noburn option with a .dar file size limit. See if this works. Am I correct to assume that it will fill the first one, burn it while filling the next one, remove it after burning/verifying and continue until done/disk is full? Still takes a very long time and verifying will also take a long time. This ammount of time, if user intervention be required, will discourage backups. So sometime along the line, needed: 1. Tell me how many disks I will need and some time estimates. 2. Option not to verity. The other script has this. 3. Exclude options. I think dar defaults these. Anyway, the slice size limit did not work. Should--simply passed on to dar? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
