You cannot restore your "C:" using backuppc. In *nix, are you able to restore your root partition using backuppc? Does it handle file meta-data like mode, ownership, acls, access/modified times, hard links, dev files...? I was using rsnapshot for backing up user data. But rsync has inherent limitations while syncing ~300k files in one go. Rsync has to keep every filename and inode info in RAM to check for hard links, and when run on a large directory tree you eventually run out of RAM and break your backup. Any backup app that internally calls the rsync binary suffers from this limitation. rdiff-backup does better... however, I only backup user data with it. I'm still looking for an easy way to backup entire *nix and Windows systems.
