Write e2fs to CD

2002-10-08 Thread kodell
Folks, Is it possible to write a e2fs directory structure to CD? Say I want to backup /www on my linux e2fs system. Then later on, just mount the cd as you would any other e2fs partition. I use cdrecord, slack linux 8, 2.2 kernel I believe. I've looked thru the FAQs. Any help appreciated.
