Dar can be used to make incremental backups which should partly solve your speed problem. Alternatively you could use tar and gpg or cpio or whatever floats your boat. The alternative would be an encrypted filesystem and rdiff-backup or rsync. Optionally you could safe the key to the filesystem on your home partition or, if it doesn't need to be automated, in a gpg-encrypted file. Let me know if you are interested in any of these options so I can explain the details further (if you need support with that, that is). --=-kOHMfefVuHvpw8rYT9bU Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBIB4YGqs4uOUlOuU8RAlYLAJ4u0uxwdcmz8RYLi3L30yxp4Sv+rwCdGqXS A3qNCrKhIGrKCRAaUWR14J8= =IvLU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-kOHMfefVuHvpw8rYT9bU-- -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
