Hi all,

I am running MEPIS 6.5 with a KDE desktop.  I am considering running Keep 
(the KDE backup thing) to do local time-series backups of my home directory 
(to guard against accidental deletions or edits) and then rsync to mirror 
everything from /home to an external USB drive periodically.  The idea is 
that for minor losses I can refer to the local Keep backups, and for 
catastrophic failure I can restore from the rsync mirror (which will 
include the Keep backups too).  Anyone doing anything like this?  All I 
have (or rather, all I will have) is the laptop and the external HD and I 
don't want to lose any data (of course).

Comments appreciated,

Thanks,

Andrew
