Hello you just supply dump each FS to file on mounted partition from the linux box pkg_info <options> > /home/...Documents/pkg_info.$(date +%Y%m%d).txt one cold-backup of each partitions (done only on version update) then a "classical" dump or a rsync or both to mounted point from the linux box (/mnt2 for example) This may be suffisant to be able to rebuild fast in case of problems.
