Re: mt and LTO

[Jeff Siddall]

Not to bash tools like cpio, tar and mt, but one of the coolest pieces 
of software out there has to be BackupPC.  Huge cheap magnetic disks 
combined with the compression and file pooling capabilities of BackupPC 
makes it hard for me to imagine going back to tapes.

Just last week I restored an entire 1.5 GB LTSP client image from a 
backup made a few months ago, all in a matter of a few minutes with no 
digging for tapes.
