Oh, no. I didn't explain properly.
I just want to keep things what don't change a lot (executables etc.)
on my SYS: partition and stuff that does change a lot (databases,
e-mails etc.) on a Business: partition so I can simply CD-R the
Business partition every week or so and not have to back up the
programs. I'll back up SYS: every few months and that should be OK
Sorry for asking for the impossible :-)
Cheers
