Do manually backup
Sometimes it might be usefull to start a backup/burn session from your
'normal' Linux (installed on your harddisk), instead of booting with the CD
and then run an automated backup. Be sure you've read the
Concept of manually backup .
If you decide to manually run a backup/burn session, in any case, you
have to make the right selections in this window and the window
Manually backup - boot stuff for CD .
Depending on your choices, maybe you also have to configure the right
parameters in all the other windows.
Remember, that the option Zip-day
(selected in the CD Backup Linux configuraton tool or stored in a file, see
below), will decide, if your harddisk partitions are read out, zipped and
stored on the configured
harddisk partition
as temporary backup files or if some already existing backup files will be
burned on CD!
The selection, you make in this window, will decide, where from
the values of only the following options will be taken, when doing the
backup:
Backup options all options of
this window
Backup list all options of this window
CD-recorder options all options
of this window
Create initial boot-CD
only the options
harddisk partition and
subdirectory
How to handle with the other options, which are needed for the boot sutff,
is configured in the window
Manually backup - boot stuff for CD .
(Yes the options 'harddisk partition' and 'subdirectory' are used for both.
This might be a reason to use a saved configuration file.)
Take options from configuration tool
When you've selected this, the actual values of the above mentioned
options of the CD Backup Linux configuration tool will be taken.
Take options from configuration file
Select this, to take the values of the above mentioned options out of
an already stored configuration file. Type in its path and filename in the
textfield.
